LEGO 1936 Mercedes-Benz 500K Special Roadster (W29)
The 500K Special Roadster is one of the rarest and most-sought after automobiles ever built. It's hard to deny that one of the signature models of Mercedes-Benz® is the 500 series. So many striking and elegant bodies would grace the stalwart chassis. The 500K's of the 1930s were beautiful, elegant, and exclusive models often outfitted with voluptuous coachwork and sold to the wealthiest of clientele. The most ravishing model of this species was the two-seater 500K Special Roadster launched in 1936. It was a limited production cabriolet, in total less than 30 were made, adding to its near-mythical qualities. In its day it went for top dollar—over $106,000. Today, these ultra rare masterpieces are going for millions. In 2012, a Special Roadster fetched more than $11.7 million at auction at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
Here's another vintage car to add to my collection.
Built at the scale of 1:16, and took me about 1 month to finish. Featuring some working features like opening doors, hood, trunk and working steering from steering wheel.
Hope you like it and thanks for looking
