AUTOart Mercedes-Benz 190 SL

Post by [KRAFTIG] » Wed Oct 03, 2018 2:55 pm

I always admired the classy looks of the Mercedes-Benz 190 SL from far. I don't really collect many classics, but on a recent episode of "Speed is the new Black", the team faithfully restored one to nearly original form. Right there and then I needed to have one in my collection!

AUTOart was the primary manufacturer, the hunt was on... I thought I purchased the model with the Black side walls, but when I removed the piece from the box the White walls were there. I prefer the "hotrod-ish" feel of the all Black but this one still impresses large. She's full opening, all metal, and nicely detailed inside and out. This is what collecting in scale is all about! Enjoy the pics!
