Summary

Revell Classics - Limited Edition

Product Detail

The Revell Classics Line is a limited re-issue of select model kits from the 1950s/60s or 70s. In order to ensure that this model kit resembles the original product as closely as possible, the packaging was made true-to-style using the previous original illustration as well as original decals. The construction manual in multiple languages contains detailed assembly instructions. This model kit was produced using the original mold that was manufactured more than 30 or 40 years ago. Insignificant deviations from the original model kit (formation of burrs or slightly imperfect fit) can be attributed to the fact that the mould was not used for a long period of time. On 6th February 1954, this racy sports coupé was launched as the little brother of the 300 SL at the Motor Sports Show in New York where it took on the rest of the sports car world. The 190 SL was a sporty and comfortable all-rounder, suitable for gentle competitions. The engine, a 1.9 litre, 4-cylinders-in-line engine with a capacity of 105 bhp (78 kW), was also appropriate to the grand touring class. It had a top speed of 170 km/h, which was sensational at that time. The elegant Cabriolet won many female hearts. From 1955 to 1963 a total of 25,881 of the type 190 SL rolled of the lines.
