Hasegawa 1/24 Mitsubishi Galant Gto Model Kit

The Mitsubishi Galant GTO was a fastback coupe produced from 1970 to 1977, representing Mitsubishi's entry into the Japanese performance car market. With its muscular Coke-bottle body lines clearly influenced by American muscle car design, the GTO was powered by the Saturn series engines ranging from 1.4 to 2.0 liters. The GTO name—Gran Turismo Omologato—declared Mitsubishi's grand touring ambitions. In period racing, the Galant GTO competed successfully in rally and circuit events across Southeast Asia and Australia. Hasegawa's kit captures the bold fastback silhouette and chrome-heavy front end of this Japanese muscle car.
