MUNCLE MIKES COLLECTOR GUIDE
’80 Mercedes-Benz 500 SLC Rallye Collector Guide
The long Mercedes coupe looks wonderfully unlikely in rally decoration. Silver paint, a black hood, and a large number 80 give it a competition character without losing the formal grille and upright cabin. Bright wheels and small sponsor markings finish the look.

A closer look at the ’80 Mercedes-Benz 500 SLC Rallye
The proportions are worth enjoying from the side: a long hood, a roomy cabin, and a short rear deck. The black hood ties the front graphics together, while the number panel breaks up the broad silver door. A front three-quarter view gives the grille and rectangular lamps their due.

Choosing one for your collection
Check the black hood for fine rubs and the white number panels for broken printing. The silver finish can make small chips difficult to see in a bright photograph. A low front view is useful for judging the grille, lamp printing, and projecting bumper corners.
For a loose example, inspect the sponsor markings on both sides. Their small size makes an otherwise tidy car look worn when the printing is rubbed. If buying carded, look through the blister at the hood and roof rather than judging the toy from the card illustration.
Collector questions
Which number identifies the Boulevard release?
131 is the collector number on this Boulevard card. 80 is the racing number on the car and also appears in the abbreviated model year in the casting name; it is not the Hot Wheels release year.
