Italeri 3645 - Heritage 1/24 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gull Wing Model Kit  [IT-3645S]

Italeri 1/24 Mercedes 300 SL Gull Wing: finely detailed classic car replica

The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gull Wing is a landmark of 1950s automotive design, first revealed in 1954. This Italeri 1/24 model captures the car's distinctive silhouette and signature doors, giving vintage car fans a faithful small-scale version to assemble and display.

Period performance and engineering highlights

The original 300 SL combined lightweight construction with a 2,996 cc engine and was capable of reaching about 260 km/h (162 mph). Its gull-wing doors were driven by chassis design and helped make the car an icon; this kit references those defining elements for historical context.

Build experience and display potential

This Italeri kit is aimed at experienced modelers who enjoy precise assembly. The set includes chromed components and a colour instruction sheet to guide the build. Once finished, the model makes an elegant display piece reflecting the 300 SL's classic lines.
