Not only does Mercedes Benz make luxury and racing vehicles, they also produce the luxury version of transport trucks. The same can be said for Revell Germany, who created this stunning model truck replica of the Mercedes 1628 S in 1/25 scale. The actual vehicle was an entirely new concept in utility trucks. It was smaller, lighter and more aerodynamically efficient, thanks in part to an added roof spoiler and better fuel economy. This well-crafted scale model kit has 133 parts and is molded in light gray with many fine molded-in details for added realism

Great care has been given to the surface detail of the engine, chassis, interior and even the wheels. The illustrated instructions offer a brief history of this interesting subject, a parts map, and a painting guide. The waterslide decals come with well presented dashboard detail, exterior badges, license plates and factory Mercedes stripes. This plastic scale model kit has been praised among kit builders for its potential to do conversion projects like a Mercedes racing truck version. Maybe you can race yours down the driveway or just use it to haul some of your other model around!
