HoHoHo Santa Comes Early!

To all of you who've always wanted a large enough cutaway diagram to hang on your wall:

Three hoes at once will do that to Santa...

Why looky there in the center console - - that's the exact same window/accessory switch array I installed in my SA for my power window conversion... and that JDM '78 has power windows.

What'd'ya'know?

And Santa just keeps on giving .... and btw he ONLY gives it to Mrs. Claus despite all the girls that want him to crawl through their chimneys.

Ho-Ho-Huh? !
They even gave it SE rims and FB door panels and Oil Cooler. Tho the battery clamp seems optional. The gallon-sized Rad tank is...generous. Tis a bit of a bastard methinks. Or some artist's wet-dream SA? eeks.

An interesting interpretation: thanks Jim!

Ho ho ho!!!!! Well Santa can see that Glen & Stu are polite boys and deserve presents this year. The rest of you who checked out this thread and enjoyed it ... letting Santa know he's appreciated is part of the Christmas spirit.

You can be rude and selfish the rest of the year.

Wow! Never heard of the RX500. Cool article.

I agree with Glen and Stu that the cutaway has some things in it like SE wheels and what not that make me think
its a composite of 1st gens. It does have SA bumpers and dash though.

Pretty cool cutaway! First thing I noticed was the SE wheels, if someone could sketch a proper set of SA waffles on there it would be even better...

Pretty sure Jun's original Hot Wheels design wears SA bumpers, though.

Will have to look at my (*cough*) Jun Imai autographed (*cough*) cars when I get home to confirm.
