Part swaps: ZG with Skyline tail piece
I already said finding some parts swapped on a RX3 would be very difficult. So instead I found a Fairlady ZG with a Skyline C210 tail piece on it:

Would that do as well? 😛

I had a hard time finding something Cedric related so you will have to do with this RX3 tail lighted Fairlady Z!

I know: I only make it harder this way: finding a RX3 with some swapped parts will be even tougher next time…

As I said a few days ago I did have something special that is close to the kaido racers: the heavily modified bemo taxi busses I saw while visiting Jayapura (Papua, Indonesia):
Mitsubishi Colt (Minicab) bemo taxi bus in Jayapura
As you can see these busses are modified with deep dish rims (sticking far out of the bodywork), tsurikawa (but only on the inside), trunk and chin spoilers, foglights and a lot of them had headlight and/or taillight swaps. So pretty close to the real deal! 🙂
How deep is your dish?
We haven’t posted any vintage Volk Mesh rims so far, so how about these 9J wide examples to make it up for that fact?

These rims were mounted under a Yonmeri Skyline GC110, once owned by one of the members of the Aoyama Jokers.
In case you are curious how these rims would look under such a car, this is how they look:

Apart from the rims this Yonmeri Skyline had its fenders widened by a set of fender flares to fit them and also the tail lights were swapped for a set of C210 items.

It took me some time to find a suitable picture to follow up the C110 tail lighted Celica RA28, but this Kenmeri Skyline with Cedric headlights will do nicely!

The Skyline was posted on the Aoyama Joker’s website as one of their cars. The vintage photo was taken in the early 80s and had a, common for cars of that era, two tone painting applied. Normally I would not think two tone pink/silver would actually look nice, but I’d say this is an exception to the rule. 😛
