Hasegawa 20482 Datsun Sunny Truck Long Body Deluxe Nissan Service Car 1/24

The Hasegawa 20482 Datsun Sunny Truck Long Body Deluxe Nissan Service Car in 1/24 scale is a unique plastic model car kit that will transport any modeling enthusiast into the world of Japanese automotive history from the late 1970s and 1980s. The kit faithfully recreates the extended version of the popular Datsun Sunny truck, used as a service vehicle by authorized Nissan Service centers throughout Japan.

The original Datsun Sunny Truck Long Body Deluxe was based on the Sunny B120 model. It was manufactured by Nissan from the late 1960s until the mid-1980s, mainly targeting the broader Asian market. Service versions like the one presented here were a common sight at authorized Nissan workshops, where they served as mobile repair units and vehicles for transporting parts and tools. The heyday of this model was at the end of the postwar period—the so-called modern era (1971–1989).
