Pop Japan

From the Nissan Skyline range of cars, here is a 1972 model of the GT-R car.

The first batch of the Nissan Skyline GT-R cars were produced fro 1969 to 1972, and weres widely used in Japanese car racing. In 1973, they released the second-generation cars under the model code, KPGC110. The Skyline made a hiatus for 16 years thereafter, and was revived in 1989 as the R32 model. This 1989 car went to grab the gold medal for four straight years at the Japanese Touring Car Championship.

Because of the car engine's racing prowess, the Australian publication named Wheels, called the Nissan Skyline as the GT-R Godzilla on the year of its re-release.
