Things to know about the Prämeta Opel Kapitän 555
The Prämeta Opel Kapitän 555 first entered the Prämeta range in 1955 as the last model in the collection and was only built for three years until model car production was discontinued in 1958. The model has three forward gears, one reverse gear and a neutral gear, all of which can be adjusted using a lever at the rear of the model. In addition, there is an automatic curve control for various driving loops, the control lever for which is located on the underside. Like every Prämeta (PRÄzisionsMETAll) model, the vehicle impresses with its die-cast zinc production with a high dead weight and an extremely high-quality finish that is second to none. The Prämeta models have not been re-issued since they were discontinued in 1958.
