    This is the Mercedes Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG #35 1971 Sudwestpokal Hockenheim Helmut Kelleners in 1:18 scale by WERK83.The Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG No. 35, piloted by Helmut Kelleners, competed in the 1971 Südwestpokal at Hockenheim, further establishing AMG’s reputation for turning luxury saloons into track monsters. Kelleners, a skilled German touring car driver with a knack for endurance racing, expertly handled the massive V8-powered “Red Pig” through the technical Hockenheim layout, impressing fans and competitors alike. What made this race particularly unique was AMG’s bold decision to continue campaigning the hefty 300 SEL against far lighter and more agile cars, defying convention and expectations. The car’s blend of brute power and surprising agility, combined with Kelleners’ precision and experience, showcased AMG’s rising engineering prowess—laying the groundwork for Mercedes-AMG’s future dominance in performance racing.This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most authentic replication.
