Tamiya 24033 Toyota Celica Supra Long Beach GP Marshal Car.

1:24 Scale Model Car Kit

1970 was the year that the world first greeted the legendary Toyota Celica, and the car continued to innovate and impress through the domestic market's top spec Celica XX in 1978 and then the second generation Celica XX 2800GT (known as Celica Supra outside of Japan) from 1981. Sporting a 2.8-liter DOHC 6-cylinder engine and fitted with jazzy overfenders and roof spoiler in some export versions, the car was a frequent sight at racetracks. It was employed as the marshal car for the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach in 1982, complete with a BAE turbocharger and boosted output of 230hp that doubtless won the car even more admirers over the race weekend.

The wedge shaped form of the car is captured in style, with separate parts for overfenders, roof spoiler and other details. Clear and plated parts are used in the light bar. The retractable headlights can be moved via a simple one-touch mechanism or can be secured in their pop-up position. The underside offers excellent detail with depictions of suspension, exhaust and more. It features a realistic interior with easy to assemble parts breakdown. The wheels are metal-plated and the front wheels are steered. It comes with a driver figure to up the realism.
