SCHUCO LARGE 1:18 SCALE MERCEDES 170V CLOCKWORK MODEL NOSIB ITEM NR.: 00051.:
$149.00

HERE I AM OFFERING UP ANOTHER ONE OF MY SCHUCO VEHICLES. THIS ONE NEVER MADE IT TO MY DISPLAY IN MY OLD \"MAN CAVE\" AS THIS WAS/IS ONE OF MY NEWEST MODELS TO MY COLLECTION. THIS IS THEIR MODEL CAR (CLOCKWORK) WHICH THEY HAVE CALLED THEIR \"SCHUCO-EDITION\" LINE. THIS MODEL WAS MADE IN 2000 AND IS A REPRODUCTION RUN USING THE EXACT SAME DIES AND PRINTING PLATES AS THE ORIGINAL RELEASED AUTO UNION VEHICLE (MORE ON THIS LATER). I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED (TO THOUSANDS) OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS THAT I HAVE OWNED OR HAVE COLLECTED OVER THE PAST 5 PLUS DECADES. I JUST RECENTLY RE~DISCOVERED ONE OF MY \"LOST\" BOXES AND THIS WAS ONE OF THE MODELS CONTAINED WITHIN IT. THIS IS A LARGE 1:18 SCALE CLOCKWORK MODEL.FOR A FACT, I KNOW THAT THIS SCHUCO WAS NEVER WOUND UNTIL THIS DAY THE 22ND OF FEBRUARY! I GINGERLY REMOVED IT FROM IT\'S PROTECTIVE INSERT AND FULLY TESTED IT. IT WAS SORT OF FUN TESTING THIS MODEL OUT.IT\'S A VERY SIMPLE CLOCKWORK DRIVE WITH A FORWARD MOTION ONLY WITH STEERING. THIS LARGE MODEL DOES NOT HAVE A FANCY GEARBOX, EMERGENCY BRAKE OR REVERSE. IT SIMPLY CHUGS ALONG FORWARD AT A SINGLE SPEED! BEING A LARGE 1:18TH SCALE CAR, IT\'S PRETTY HEAVY AS IT\'S MADE FULLY OUT OF TIN/METAL. THE CLOCKWORK SPRING MUST BE A GOOD SIZE TO POWER SUCH A LARGE VEHICLE AS IT DOES.THE BODY ON THIS MERCEDES 170V LIMOUSINE IS AS NEW. IT HAS NEVER LEFT THE PROTECTION OF IT\'S BOX FOR ANY REASON OTHER THEN THE PICTURES SUPPLIED HERE AND IT\'S INAUGURAL TESTING WHICH I JUST PERFORMED. THIS MODEL IS SCHUCO\'S ITEM NUMBER: 00051. THE BODY HAS A CLASSIC BLACK HIGH GLOSS FINISH. IT\'S LIKE LOOKING AT A BLACK MIRROR, IT\'S SHINY WITH NO APPARENT FLAWS. IT HAS TASTEFUL CHROME ACCENTS AND A FULL SIZE SPARE TIRE, WHICH EMERGES OUT OF THE TRUNK, THE EXACT ONE WHICH IS USED ON THE VEHICLE. THE BUMPERS ACTUALLY WORK AS THESE ARE THE OLD LEAF SPRING STYLE OF BUMPERS. THE MERCEDES BENZ TRI-STAR LOGO ON THE GRILL IS PERFECT AND ORIGINAL TO THIS MODEL AS ARE THE HEADLIGHTS AND FIVE (5) HUB CAPS.THE CHASSIS IS AS NEW AND AS SHOULD BE EXPECTED FROM A TRUE NOS MODEL.THE BOX IS IN EXCELLENT ALL AROUND SHAPE/CONDITION WITH ONLY VERY MILD SHELF RASHING. YOU DO HAVE A STICKER WHICH WAS PULLED OFF LOCATED AT THE FRONT PANEL ON THE LOWER LEFT. THE BOX HAS A PLASTIC WINDOW, WHICH IS USELESS AS THE PROTECTIVE INSERT IS 100% STYROFOAM! YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL KEY AND TOOLS STILL SEALED AND TAPED TO THE INNER PROTECTIVE STYROFOAM (ONCE AGAIN, I USED ANOTHER KEY FOR IT\'S TESTING) AND YOU ALSO HAVE THE ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED.THIS IS AN ORIGINAL SCHUCO MODEL AND IS A RE-MANUFACTURED MODEL OF ONE THAT THEY PRODUCED ORIGINALLY BACK IN THE \'50\'S. THE SAME DIES AND TOOLS WERE USED. THE BIG DIFFERENCE IS THAT THIS ONE WORKS PERFECTLY AS THE SPRING MECHANISM HAS BEEN RETOOLED AND HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP TO DATE WITH SOME STRONGER MATERIALS. SO YOU HAVE A MUCH GREATER CHANCE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO OVER WINDING IT, THUS DISABLING IT\'S CLOCKWORK ENGINE.I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING THEM AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF. I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT\'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS! THIS SCHUCO VEHICLE WILL NOT NEED TO BE RE-TESTED AS I DO KNOW ITS WHOLE LIFE\'S HISTORY AND I AM 100% SURE THAT YOU WILL BE VERY PROUD TO OWN THIS MODEL AND TO ADD IT TO YOUR COLLECTION.PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY PICTURES AS THESE DO BECOME AN IMPORTANT PART OF MY DESCRIPTION AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST!
