Remember that Hako Skyline livery I made a while back in FH4? The car that inspired the livery is now for sale.

This 1972 Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R C10 (Hako) is soon to be auctioned off at BH Auctions in Oyama, Japan. The car was previously owned by Shigeru Watanabe, it’s a common enough name, but this particular mr. Shigeru Watanabe is the legendary “god of GTRs”.

The car was the inspiration for the livery of a different Hako 2000 GT-R, which, in turn became the inspiration for the livery that I made in FH4, as you can see below.

What do you think of that? Shigeru Watanabe’s very own C10 being auctioned off. Skyline fans and vintage car collectors around the world are probably rejoicing over the thought of owning the C10 Skyline that once belonged to the god of GTRs.
