Armstrong Nissan #104 Nissan Bluebird Turbo – 1985 Queensland Sports Sedan Championship Surfers Paradise

Gary Scott

Please Note: Concept Image Pictured

The year is 1985 and the winds of change have swept through Australian motorsport, leaving Group C a mere memory and Group A the new “main game” category for the foreseeable future. But what to do with the cars that were obsolete overnight? Gary Scott, co-driver for George Fury in the 1984 James Hardie 1000, took the Bluebird and flew the coop.

With Howard Marsden’s consent and backing from Nissan Sport, Scott borrowed the Bluebird and with little more than a snazzy Armstrong Nissan paint job, sent it into the battle in the latter part of the 1985 Australian GT / Sports Sedan Championships. It ruffled more than a few feathers, by not only clinching pole position and snagging second place in the Queensland Super Sedan Championship, held at Surfer’s Paradise. 

This 1:43 scale model is scheduled to be produced in high detail sealed body die-cast with clear windows, detailed racing cockpit and undercarriage.
Comprised of over 40 individual metal and plastic parts plus multiple steps in paint and decoration finishing, this is a high quality collectors model for fans of this scale.
It will come in an exclusive one-off limited edition, presented in a display case with the model attached to a white base plate which features the car details printed on it. An individually numbered backing board featuring the edition number is also included as part of the package and acts as the Certificate of Authenticity for the release.
