Tamiya 24366 - 1/24 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Full View Model Kit - Detailed Display Edition  [24366]

Explore the Mercedes-Benz 300SL in Clear Detail with Tamiya's Full View Kit

The Mercedes-Benz 300SL needs little introduction to car fans. Launched in 1954 as a production form of a successful race prototype, it stood out for its flowing lines and engineering innovations. The Tamiya 1/24 scale kit delivers a Full-View presentation so builders can examine both exterior styling and internal structure.

Transparent Panels to Showcase the Frame and Engine

This Full-View release takes Tamiya's classic 300SL tooling and adds clear body sections, exposing the multi-tubular space frame and the inline-6 engine set at a 45 degree angle. Modelers can leave clear parts unpainted to highlight the precise internal reproduction.

The 300SL's Lasting Influence

The 300SL introduced gull wing doors and a lightweight chassis that influenced sports car design for decades. Its early use of direct fuel injection combined power with efficiency, and the Tamiya kit recreates those key features with careful attention to scale detail.
