“NISMAGNUM” I got yer MOPAR and JDM Right Here


Nissan GTR not really your style? Is a Dodge Magnum too trucklike? Do you wish for a Skyline wagon that's a bit, well, burlier? Look no further.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the above is actually a kitbashed model, built by Model Cars Magazine forum user "Zoom Zoom." Starting with a Revell Dodge Magnum kit, the original intent was to create a Mustang wagon version. However, the Mustang front clip didn't fit properly, so instead of trashing the project, the builder decided to use an Aoshima GTR and have a little fun.

The interior was adjusted for RHD, but the Magnum's original dual exhaust was retained. The Skyline front clip blends perfectly with the Magnum's slab-side bodywork, as do the circular taillights.

A set of NISMO appearance decals and badges, as well as a nice quartet of JDM-spec wheels finish off the car nicely, which actually looks like a car that could be produced and sold.
