Tamiya 1/24 Honda S600

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.
