Mercedes-benz C-111 Description

The prototype vehicle never made into production but the 1974 Hot Wheels did. Released in Enamel Red with a bright stars & stripes tampo. This cast ran all the way to 1977 but the early version were only avaliable for a very short time. The Chrome plastic base version has not been found in Blister as of yet.

Another interesting note on early '74's is they can be found with a white undercoat, under the main enamel paint.
