Mercedes Benz 300SL - 1/24 scale model of the legendary sports car Tamiya 24338
Gull-Wing is winning the hearts of the whole world!
Mercedes-Benz 300 SL is an automotive legend, a supercar from the famous German manufacturer with gull wings. It was a 1954 release and was loosely based on the successful racing prototype of two years earlier, inheriting the race car's internal mechanics. What could the world do but accept such beauty? In fact, the gullwings were not only an aesthetic masterstroke, they were born of necessity: the modern tubular space frame of the 300 SL made the use of "conventional" side doors somewhat impractical. The body has actually undergone a few minor changes from the original prototype, resulting in a more elegant, road-going sports car-style appearance. Power was provided by an inline six-cylinder engine with direct injection technology (a world first) that produced 215 hp. and significant speed.
