The "first generation" Buick Skyhawk is a subcompact, four passenger, hatchback automobile that was introduced September 1974, and produced for the 1975 through 1980 model years.
Today on the Model Car Garage we will be looking at the 1975 Buick Skyhawk By Doyusha. This is a model car unboxing video that I hope you will enjoy.
The Buick Skyhawk was based on the Chevrolet Vega, and shares its wheelbase and width. The Skyhawk was produced with H-body variants Chevrolet Monza, Oldsmobile Starfire, and Pontiac Sunbird. In North America, it competed with other small sporty cars, such as the Toyota Celica, Datsun 200SX, VW Scirocco, Mercury Capri, and the Ford Mustang II. The Buick Skyhawk was the smallest car to wear the Buick badge in more than 60 years.
The Doyusha 1975 Buick Skyhawk model car kit is made of multi-colored plastic sprues and has a thick box. One very nice thing about Doyusha kits is that the body, chrome and clear parts are all in a separate bags and compartments to keep them from being scratched by other parts.
This model kit is really a battery powered electric toy complete with an electric motor.
That being said, this model could easily be converted into a slot car for those looking for something unique in 1/24th scale track racing.
The interior and engine bay are very "flat bottomed" but include a lot of details, especially in the engine bay. As for the interior, the seats, dashboard and steering wheel are shallow and do not reach the floor. This was done to clear all the electric components underneath.
To make the car a little less "toy like", Doyusha includes sunken lines under the hood and trunk areas which will allow you to open them up and hinge them.
The chassis includes pose-able steering wheels with a rack and pinion style steering system which will lock in place when you turn the wheels.
This is not a highly detailed model kit, but if you know that before you purchase the kit, and if you like these toy like model cars, then this kit is good for you!
