This is a very large scale radio-controlled model 165 Mercedes Benz race car, one of About six known to exist. This car was made in the mid 1980s by Jerry Mrlik, a retired engineer for General Motors. He and Ron Phillips started production of high-end, hand-built radio controlled cars. After spending roughly $1.5 million in tools and other materials, for health reasons, the company went bankrupt.

Purchased from the collection of Count Giansanti-Coluzzi..
