Revell Ford Taunus 17 M die-cast model

This is a 1:18 scale die-cast model of a Ford Taunus 17 M manufactured by Revell. Revell is one of the most famous names in the plastic model kit and die-cast industry. While the brand has its roots in both the United States and Germany, it underwent various corporate restructurings over the decades.

The Ford Taunus 17 M itself represents a classic German-designed Ford vehicle from the mid-20th century. Most modern Revell products, including their die-cast vehicle lines, are manufactured in China to leverage specialized production facilities for intricate hobbyist goods. Today, the brand is owned by an investment group, continuing its legacy as a leader in the global modeling market.
