The Messerschmitt Kabin Cruiser
which almost everyone remembers
is the KR 200 with three wheels and
the legendary " Bubble Dome ".
It was common throughout Europe
and was sometimes fondly known
as " Snow White's coffin ".
Cabriolets , Roadsters and Sports were less common variations of
the familiar 3-wheel theme .
TMC currently make the popular "Dome" type .
MODEL DIMENSIONS approx 525mm x 270mm x 233mm ( approx 21 x 11 x 9 inches )
TMC painted this model in Mercedes red , to it's new
owners specification
It was supplied READY-TO-GO , fully detailed to the
buyers wishes . It was fitted with all the necessary
Radio-Control equipment and was tested and set-up
before despatch .
Windows have a smoked silver effect .
Here's another red " Lesserschmitt" .
TMC supplied a basic white gel-finish dome-type
bodyshell and it's new owner has converted it to a
Radio-Controlled Cabriolet replica .
He converted the bodywork to make the canopy open
just like a real car . He also fitted a hand-sewn fabric
hood with sliding transparent window panels .
Here's another red Lesserschmitt , with its owner , to show the scale ...
This is a model with a unique bodyshell .
Supplied to match the real car of a
well-known enthusiast owner in Costa Rica ,
this Ready-to-Run TMC radio-controlled
model was a prototype for a KR200 Cabrio .
The rigid roof was shaped by hand to match
the shape of a cabrio top , with raised bow
shapes .
It was then sprayed with Black Wrinkle-effect
paint to give the look of soft-top fabric .
