CMC Diecast 1:18 Mercedes SSKL 8 1931 Ltd. One manufacturer dominated the racing scene from the mid to the late 1920’s, & even in 1931. That manufacturer was Mercedes-Benz with its legendary supercharged models from the SSK series. The race cars of that period proved their performance in a variety of races. The Mercedes-Benz racers were called the “ White Elephants” because of their overwhelming power & great size. 1931 became a very special year for the talented driver Rudolf Caracciola & his SSK. The Mercedes-Benz factory in Untertürkheim only provided limited support because of the worldwide economic crisis. In spite of that, Rudolf Caracciola, with his lightweight SSKL, achieved two sensational victories in 1931. Caracciola’s greatest victory was undoubtedly the Mille Miglia on April 12-13, 1931. Soon after, the public was treated to his next triumph in a Mercedes SSKL. On July 19, Caracciola & his “ White Elephant” achieved victory in the Grand Prix of Germany. The race was held at the legendary Nordschleife of the Nürburgring, also called the “ Green Hell.” The drivers had to master 22 laps, a challenge of 501.8 km. “ Caratsch” & his co-pilot Wilhelm Sebastian covered that distance in only 4 hours, 38 minutes, & 10 seconds, with an average speed of 108.3 km/h. ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY.

CMC Diecast 1:18 Mercedes Targa Florio 1924 - Red

CMC Diecast 1:18 Mercedes Targa Florio 1924 - Red. The traffic route of the Targa and Coppa Florio, the race of „7.000 curves”, led through tight mountain roads right through the mountain villages of Sicily. The Targa Florio included four rounds, the Coppa one more. Each round had a length of 108 km. To win the Targa, doesn`t ment to win the Coppa also, because to stay one more round in this hard street race, was no walk in the park. Christian Werner made it – supported by his co-pilot Karl Sailer. The major job of Sailer was to keep the gas tank per manual pump under pressure and take care about the grease lubrication. At the 27th of April in 1924 the team wins with the compressor Mercedes both titles. Also they were able to establish a new track record with 1 hour and 35
minutes for one round. His team mates Christian Lautenschlager and Alfred Neubauer placed 10th and 15th. In the team competition Mercedes placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Some confusion caused the painting of the bolids. Instead of the typical white painting of German racing cars of that time, the Targa Florio came with a shining italian red. Rumours are saying, that the Mercedes crew was trying to prevent attacks (throwing of stones) from hot-blooded sicilian fans. Features: Steering wheel with metal spokes, Steering wheel rim covered with leather, leather seats, Nicely designed dash board with round instruments, Movable drivers wind shield, movable lever for ignition- and compound adjustment, Manual pump to set the gas tank under pressure and grease gun for water pump lubrication,
Double-leaf enginehood made of copper. Side panel can also be opened, Highly detailed engine with cabeling and arangement of levers ****NOW AVAILABLE, PLEASE ALLLOW A FEW EXTRA DAYS FOR DELIVERY.****
