Italeri Mercedes Benz 300sl Gullwing16 Model Kit

The Mercedes-Benz 300SL "Gullwing" is one of the most beautiful and technically advanced sports cars ever built. Its iconic upward-opening doors were necessitated by the tubular spaceframe chassis that ran along the door sills, while the Bosch mechanical fuel injection system — the first in a production car — made the 300SL the fastest production vehicle of 1954 at 161 mph. This large-scale Italeri kit captures the legendary coupe in extraordinary detail, including the complex spaceframe visible through open doors, the fuel-injected straight-six engine, and the distinctive wheel arch eyebrows.
