Revell 07039 Shelby Series 1 Model Kit 1/25 – Plastic assembly model kit

Discover an exceptional sports car model from the late 1990s by choosing the Revell 07039 Shelby Series 1 Model Kit in 1/25 scale. This set allows you to build a faithful replica of the legendary car, created under the personal supervision of Carroll Shelby. The Shelby Series 1 is the only car by this designer that was created from scratch based on an original design—not as a modification of an existing model.

History and Usage: The Shelby Series 1 was unveiled in 1997 and produced from 1998 to 2004 in the USA. This car set new standards for lightweight, racing construction by combining an aluminum frame with a fiberglass body. Equipped with an Oldsmobile V8 engine, it delivered 320 hp, and in supercharged versions, the power rose to over 450 hp. It was a road-legal vehicle designed for the American market, quickly finding its way into private collections and rarely appearing at racing events or modern classic car exhibitions.
