Have the SLR by Paul's Model Art in 1/24th scale. Incredible detail. But I think the CMC in 1/18th has it beat! Magnificent car, magnificent replication, magnificent pics!

CMC did a good job on this car, lots of nice detail to it. The paint in person is outstanding.

It LOOKS it! And while I have always been impressed with Paul's MA's rendering of the wire wheels, these are better!

"For a brief moment...."

"Brief"  is right, I'd crap my pants!    That's one hell of a scale replica!     😮 😮

If you find it too loud, put a muffler on it:

300 SLR Uhlenhaut 005 001

I love the "Kindig-It" door handles.
