1975 Nissan Skyline Kenmeri GT-R

1975 Nissan Skyline Kenmeri GT-R

1975 Nissan Skyline "Kenmeri" GT-R Fully Restore

Here's one nice lineage of the Japanese sports cars known as Nissan Skyline, originally produced by the Prince Motor Company in 1955, and then merged with Nissan in 1966. After the merger, the Skyline was released only for the domestic market in Japan (JDM Car) and sold specifically at dealership sales channels called Nissan Prince Shop at the time.

As shown here, it could be one the best restorations of the Nissan Skyline Kenmeri GT-R, with custom wheels making more aggressiveness at its look but not spoil the beauty by retaining most of the original components, it same as when came out of the factory, is a very cool red color with black interior.
The Skyline Kenmeri GT-R is the rarest production of the Nissan automobile, a master of speeds for its era, and is fearless. Unfortunately, the GT-R was unsuccessful on the market reportedly only 197 examples of the Kenmeri GT-R were sold due to a gasoline crisis hit in the early 70s so is very worth keeping it.

How about the engine of this car? As you've seen here is not a 2.0 L S20 I6 engine. As we know the GT-R is the highest-performance version of the Skyline family they all carry the S20 as their heart. So the judgment is a minus on the engine, the rest is a cool car.

1970 Nissan Skyline GT-R S45, The Real Japanese Muscle Car

Currently hard to find a coupe nearly 40 years old that was still running perfectly and keep shiny as the day he left the factory. But sometimes we can find a gem like this 1970 Nissan Skyline GT-R S45 Coupe has only 55,302 miles, thanks to who is behind this car, which seems to have spent the time for impeccable restoration and maintenance exquisite.
Even though it's just the photos, it's a privilege for us to enjoy a 70s Japanese coupe with the charm and in perfect condition, the grandfather of the Nissan GT-R.

2.0-liter S20 Nissan engine

To maintain authenticity, this car retains the 2.0-liter S20 engine that had Nissan series, and when it left the factory produced a power of 160 hp at 7000 rpm, while delivering torque to the rear axle through a box five-speed manual transmission. As if that were not enough you mark the odometer only 55,302 miles, confirming the little use has been given over almost 40 years.

Whichever way you look at all these are details that recall us to this series of coupes born to make life difficult for American sports stuff. Details like its gigantic mirrors on the hood, recessed suspensions that fall to the front axle, chrome bumpers, and interior panels and seats upholstered in leather. Just pure path JDM all the way.
