Nitto Savanna Rx-7
1/28 scale

This is a neat little motorized kit made by Nitto, later reboxed by Entex, Blue Tank and HR.
The kit consists of a one-piece body molded in green, a detailed interior and a fairly simple floorpan all molded in black and a single clear window tub.
The front wheels steer, the electric motor is hidden below a luggage cover in the rear of the car and a single AA-size battery is hidden in the nose.
A set of generic sponsor decals is included.

Below is an image from the 1979 Nitto catalog showing a completed model.
