About the Auto Union Type C #111 H. Stuck Schauinsland Hillclimb Germany 1937 CMC 1:18

TL;DR: CMC's 1:18 diecast Auto Union Type C reproduces Hans Stuck's car from the 1937 Schauinsland Hillclimb, part of the mid-engined silver arrows era of German pre-war racing. Opening features, used model, box showing traces of storage. A landmark subject for collectors of 1930s German motorsport.

Stuck was one of the great hillclimb specialists of the pre-war era, and the mid-engined Type C's V16 engine placement was a genuinely radical layout for the 1930s, one that gave Auto Union a distinct technical identity apart from Mercedes' rival silver arrows programme.

Opening Detail on a Radical Pre-War Layout

This casting's bonnet and panels open, exposing the mid-mounted engine layout that made the Type C such an unusual design for its time, a genuine point of engineering interest CMC captures with real fidelity. Handling those panels shows deliberate, engineered resistance rather than a loose swing. The silver bodywork should show clean, even coverage across the Type C's slender, purposeful shape, and the diecast body's weight reflects CMC's part-intensive metal construction, well above entry-level tolerances. As a used model, expect some handling wear on close inspection, and the outer box shows traces of storage rather than a pristine retail presentation.

A Technical Landmark for the Serious Collector

The Auto Union silver arrows occupy a special place in pre-war motorsport history, distinct from the more commonly modelled Mercedes rivals of the period. Displayed within a hillclimb or German grand prix theme, alongside period Mercedes or Bugatti subjects, this Type C offers a technically distinct counterpoint, and its opening features let that radical mid-engine layout be examined directly rather than only described.
