Revell 07243 Shelby GT 500 (1/24) – Plastic Car Model Kit

The Shelby GT 500 car model in 1/24 scale from the renowned manufacturer Revell is an excellent choice for all automotive modeling enthusiasts, especially admirers of American cars. The Revell 07243 replicates one of the most famous muscle cars of the late 1960s and early 1970s, an icon of strength and automotive style in the United States.

The Shelby GT 500 was developed based on the Ford Mustang and produced by Shelby American. The car entered the market in 1967, during the dynamic development of muscle cars, at a time when American automotive engineering was vying for supremacy on tracks and streets across the USA. The Shelby GT 500 was distinguished by its powerful V8 engine and characteristic aggressive appearance, remaining to this day one of the most sought-after classic cars.

The Revell model in 1/24 scale features a very high level of detail. The kit includes as many as 104 plastic parts allowing for the assembly of a precisely reproduced body, interior, and chassis components. The model’s construction allows for the hood to be opened and a faithfully reproduced V8 engine, which will surely appeal to more advanced modelers. Every detail was designed with careful replication of the 1967 original in mind.

The product is made of high-quality plastic, guaranteeing precise fitting of parts and the durability of the finished model. Glue or paints are not included in the kit—we recommend purchasing them separately according to your color preferences and following the manufacturer's instructions. The kit also includes decals for finishing the car according to the original paint scheme.
