Description
Today I am offering the collection of a former CMC dealer and long-time collector of these beautiful models. Almost all of them are in new condition in their original packaging with all accessories as shown in my photos. If the model had leather straps to close the hoods, these were never opened. In many cases, the security stickers are still present. Everything should be clearly visible in the photos. One or two of the original packages may show signs of storage.
You will receive an invoice according to §25a UstG without showing the statutory value added tax for used goods.
Not suitable for children under 14 years. May contain small and sharp parts.
A German with Sicilian Temperament
The Targa and Coppa Florio, the race of "7,000 curves," took place on narrow mountain roads right through the mountain villages of Sicily. The Targa Florio comprised four laps, the Coppa an additional fifth; each was 108 kilometers long. Winning the Targa did not automatically mean being the winner of the Coppa Florio, as surviving one lap in this tough road race was no easy feat.
Christian Werner managed it – supported by co-driver Karl Sailer, whose primary responsibility was to keep the fuel tank pressurized with a hand pump and to ensure grease lubrication. On April 27, 1924, the team, driving a supercharged Mercedes, won both accolades and also set a lap record of 1:35 hours. Teammates Christian Lautenschlager and Alfred Neubauer achieved tenth and fifteenth place. In the class prize allocation, Mercedes secured the top three ranks.
The paintwork of the race cars caused confusion. Instead of the usual German racing color white, the race cars shone in Italian red. Rumor has it that the Mercedes crew wanted to protect themselves from stone-throwing by fiery Sicilian fans.
