1:18 Ford GT40 MK1 1968 yellow

Born for Le Mans and developed to challenge Ferrari, the Ford GT40 made motorsport history in the 1960s. Four overall victories in a row crowned the racing legend, and in 1968 the Mk1 triumphed again at the Sarthe. The name says it all: GT40 refers to the extremely low overall height of around 40 inches, the aerodynamic silhouette and the uncompromising layout of a thoroughbred endurance sports car. This Solido model Ford GT40 MK1 1968 in 1:18 scale brings the iconic appearance to the collector's shelf. The bright yellow with black double stripes, the white starting number circles and the emphatically wide fenders capture the racing look of the era perfectly. The flat front end with low-set headlights, the side air intakes and the compact proportions look as if they have been cast from a single mold. Black wheels underline the squat stance that makes the GT40 so unmistakable, while finely defined contours, clear glazing and neatly finished details emphasize the authentic character of this 1:18 classic. Anyone who loves the spirit of the late sixties and the DNA of a Le Mans winner will find an attractive piece of automotive history in miniature here. Since 1932, Solido has stood for detailed diecast models of iconic vehicles, from classic cars to modern sports cars.
