This is the Mercedes-Benz 710SS 1929 cabriolet Castagna sn36269 Current Opened Car Burgundy in 1:43 scale by Ilario.
The 1929 Mercedes-Benz 710 SS Cabriolet by Castagna is an extraordinary example of pre-war automotive artistry and performance, setting it apart with a rarefied combination of bespoke coachwork and one of the most powerful engines of its era. Its 7.1-liter supercharged inline-six delivered impressive acceleration and torque at a time when few road cars offered such performance, earning the SS (Super Sport) designation. Wrapped in elegant Castagna-built cabriolet coachwork, the 710 SS was as much a rolling work of art as an engineering achievement, paired with luxurious interiors and custom details tailored to discerning owners. In an age before mass-production dominated, this car stood out not just for speed and power, but for its exclusivity, handcrafted excellence, and bespoke pedigree — traits that placed it well beyond ordinary competition and into the realm of automotive masterpieces.
Ilario’s 1:43 scale models are high-end, hand-crafted miniature collectible cars that capture the elegance and detail of classic and historic automobiles in a compact format (about ~10 cm long). These pieces are typically limited-edition, resin and metal hybrids with photo-etched parts, finished with meticulous paintwork and presented as display-quality collectibles rather than toys, making them prized among serious model car enthusiasts and collectors.
