A masterpiece of architecture model

Carlos Zatuszek competed in the 1931 Autumn Cup of Argentina with start number 14 and won the 400-kilometer race with a track record. After Berndt and Zatuszek sold their winning car in 1935, it was used in Argentina by other racers until the 1950s. After that, its traces were lost until it was rediscovered in Argentina. The car’s components were taken to Germany, where it was reconstructed and given back its original red livery. CMC had the opportunity to digitally measure the SSK during the restoration and can dedicate an absolutely authentic miniature to this unique prototype.
