Its development was based on the previously introduced roadster model and was characterised by a harmonious and elegant design.
The 450 SLC was equipped with a 4520 cm3 V8 engine with an output of 225 hp.
This high performance was successfully combined with refined design and the "premium" quality equipment selected for the vehicle interior, which strengthened the SLC luxury branding on the market.
The vehicle was further adapted from the standard model to produce a sports version for car rally competitions. The chassis was the same, but the rally version featured a roll bar, competition wheels and aluminium parts and components to reduce the overall weight.
All these factors contributed to performance improvements and rally successes such as the Mintex Rally victory in 1978.
