Description
The Tamiya 1/24 Honda S600 from our 1/24 and 1/25 scale car model kits range accurately recreates the real-life Japanese sports car. This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete.The latest model in the 1/24 Sports Car Series depicts a Honda classic, the S600. The car was the successor to the S500, Hondas maiden production car released in 1963. The S600 got 57hp out of a 606cc 4-cylinder DOHC engine that could hold its own compared with racing engines, and it featured a motorcycle style chain-driven rear wheel drive. Exports to Europe followed as the S600 quickly made a name for itself, gaining popularity as a highly lightweight and speedy sports car. It was also to prove a success in races both inside and outside of Japan.Model Features: The compact, lowdown form of the S600 is covered with accuracy. This kit is based upon Tamiyas accurate kit of the S800 (Items 24190, 89657). New parts are included to depict S600-specific features such as the front grille and bumper unit, hood, radiator-top parts, brake and reverse lights, plus wheels. The unique rear chain-drive unit-based trailing arm suspension is concisely and realistically captured, as is the front double wishbone setup. Parts are included to recreate the S600 as an open top with folded down roof, or as a hard top. Decals and metal transfers have been newly designed for this model.Manufacturer: Tamiya Model: 24340 Honda S600 Scale: 1/24
