Tomica - Nissan Cedric Japanese Taxi

Ten years ago, I attempted to convert this taxi into a normal version like this particular Cedric. Unfortunately, I lacked the required skills and knowledge in toy car restoration and modification. The taxi was in terrible condition. I could not patch up the two holes after removing the taxi top light box. Also, I did not know how to remove the paint effectively; instead I tried to apply many layers of paint to cover up the taxi design. It failed terribly as the entire car looked like a piece of detail-less crap.

Only recently I found this unit for sale on eBay. Very lucky indeed.
