1959 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Hardtop (4 'n 1) Stock, Rally, Road and Custom
(1/24)
MINT
Issued in 1960.
This kit is part of collection we bought that came out of a retail store
that closed in the late 70's. All of the kits, including this one,
were factory sealed and had been sitting in the climate controlled house
of the owner of the hobby shop. His widow recently sold us the whole
lot which included about 300 mint unopened AMT, Hubley, Johan, MPC,
Monogram and Revell kits dating back to the early 1960's. We will be
listing these kits as they arrive. With many of the kits, we have
broken the seal and opened them just to make sure no damage has occurred
thru time such as windshield cowl breaks or severe tire burn. Since
tire burn can be an issue with kits from this era, on most of these kits
we have bagged and sealed the tires to protect the contents for another
50 years. Unless otherwise noted, the kits have mint boxes and
contents as they were packed 40-50 years ago. Kits from this era were
rarely perfect, and some slight imperfections are to be expected. If
the kit has the (fs) designation, we have not broken the seal, and the
kit is, in fact, factory sealed from the date it was manufactured.
