{"product_id":"1-24-toyoda-model-aa","title":"Tamiya 1\/24 Toyoda Model AA","description":"\u003cp\u003eToyota has become a major player in the global auto industry, but like other manufactures it had humble beginnings. Tamiya recreates Toyota’s first “production” car known as the Model AA, which was built by the automobile section of the Toyoda Automatic Loom Works company. The Model AA was their first production car, released in 1936 and as it was still an internal department of Toyoda, this car bears the unfamiliar “–da” ending to the brand name (in 1937 the automobile division became an individual entity and changed to the Toyota name still used today). The Model AA was sold as a domestically designed and produced competitor to U.S.-made cars, its stylish and flowing body mounted on a ladder frame and the whole package powered by a 3.4-liter inline-6 engine. Around 1,400 AAs rolled out of the factory over its 6 years of production, an important first step in the making of the Toyota brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstruction type: Assembly kit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhoto-etch parts: Included\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecals: Included\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 1: Length: 202mm, width: 73mm, height: 75mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 2: Finely-finished metal-plated parts recreate front grille, headlight parts and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 3: Break-down of the model mimics that of the real Model AA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 4: The body is placed directly onto the detailed ladder frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 5: Detailed leaf spring suspension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 6: Metal plated hub caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 7: Detailed interior included with highly-realistic driver figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 8: Comes with photo-etched parts to recreate the elegant front wing emblem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 9: Metal-plated parts are utilized to recreate bumpers, front grille, and windshield wipers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial feature 10: Metallic decals recreate body side and bonnet detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Tamiya \/ 1\/24 \/ Car","offer_id":53187464036632,"sku":"Tam24339","price":740.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0141\/5256\/4794\/files\/24339_1.jpg?v=1794217010","url":"https:\/\/swordandboard.co.za\/products\/1-24-toyoda-model-aa","provider":"Sword \u0026 Board Games and Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
