"Rakosuka" by the students at Nissan Automobile Technical College Kyoto (apparently with a parts/sponsorship arrangement with Racing Service Watanabe):

That's the one. :)
1 more point for you.

At first glance, the 3rd generation Skyline (C10 series), a famous car of the past, is nicknamed "Hakosuka". Nissan Kyoto Motor College has reproduced the atmosphere with the Rasheen of the crossover SUV, which still has many fans with the same Nissan car, because the shape of the windshield and the angle of the pillars are similar.

This is one made by students attending the school's customization department, and its name is "Rakosuka". The origin of the name is easy to understand, and it is a product of Rasheen and Hakosuka.

Many parts used for the exterior such as the grill, bumper, and tail lamp are the same as those for the Skyline. There are a lot of parts reprinted for restoration only for popular models, so there was no problem in collecting parts.

Moreover, in order to get closer to the atmosphere of the actual car, the clear surfing line running on the bonnet and the lower part of the side is molded with FRP from the real Hakosuka. Just as other students were working on the restoration of the Skyline, which was scheduled to be exhibited at the same time as the Skyline, I made good use of the "motifs" that are close to me.

Another highlight is the floral pattern on the back of the hood and in the engine room. This is a masterpiece drawn by the first female student in the school's customization department using an airbrush. In the future, this Rakosuka will be inspected and will be used as a school official car.
