17114003 - 3S Self Build Garage - Brown/Cream (HO Scale)
This garage does exist in real life!
Introduced as a kit by WIKING in 1967, it made its return 55 years later as a prefabricated model. Following the presentation of the 1:87 model in 1967, garage manufacturer 3S alone ordered nearly 60,000 units of this garage model and even offered it in their own garage brochure. And, what do you know: Every “large” garage was accompanied by a “small” garage for children. A truly appealing gift, the kit was a hit with everyone, as the manufacturer fondly remembers. In 1971, the garage disappeared from WIKING's product range. It also marked the end of life for the extensive range of accessories that WIKING founder Fritz Peltzer had maintained up to that point. The self-build garage actually stayed close to the original prototype. Boasting a footprint of three by six meters, the original can, of course, also be realised as a row garage.
