Tamiya

The Mercedes Benz 300 SL complements the Tamiya sports car series in 1:24 scale as a classic sports car. The original vehicle was initially produced as a prototype for the in-house racing team to participate in national races and championships. In 1954, a production model debuted at the International Automobile Exhibition in New York.

Despite its "street car status," the 300 SL was a sporty and elegant vehicle that became very popular in the United States. It features a 3-liter inline 6-cylinder engine—which is where the "300" in its name comes from—an extremely lightweight body (SL stands for "Sport Leicht" or "Light Sport"), and the distinctive gullwing doors. By the end of production in May 1957, 1,400 units had been produced.

The Tamiya kit reflects all the details: the complex tubular frame, the distinctive gullwing doors, and many other aspects, ensuring that the model is true to the original in every way.

Product details: Model kit in 1:24 scale. The timeless elegant shape of this classic is stunningly captured and realized in the model. The hood and gullwing doors can be opened. The doors can be locked in the open position with a small brace. Under the hood, there is a highly detailed engine and engine compartment. The hood can also be locked in the open position. The complex tubular frame, one of the car's signature features, is accurately reproduced.

For detailing the front air intake, nylon mesh is included. Many chrome parts, such as trim, bumpers, and more, are included in the kit. Masking tape for the windows is also included. Metal transfers for decoration (mirror surfaces, emblems) are part of the kit.

Authentic reproduction of the tires. Package includes: detailed kit (unpainted), decoration, assembly instructions. Warning: Not suitable for children under 14 years old.
