1:24 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL
The Mercedes-Benz 300SL joins the 1/24 Sports Car Series as it is considered an all-time classic in the automotive world. The real car began life as a prototype for the German motor giant’s works racing team, taking part in international races, and in 1954 a production version debuted at the International Motor Show in New York. Despite nominal road car status, the 300SL was still a very racy vehicle and proved popular, particularly in the United States. It possessed a 3-liter engine (hence the 300 in its name), and a highly lightweight body (SL stands for Sport Leicht, lit. “light sports”) with striking gull-wing doors. 1,400 cars were produced by the end of its production run in May 1957.
The Tamiya model kit captures the real-life subject down to the working Gull-Wing doors and complex tubular space frame.
