1:18 Scale Diecast GT40 by Solido Commemorates Ford’s Le Mans Victories & Jim Clark’s F1 Championships

Ford stunned the world and sent Ferrari packing when the remarkable Ford GT40 swept the podium at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. The GT40 legend continued with 24 Hour victories in 1967, ’68 and ’69 at Le Mans.

This Solido diecast perfectly captures every curve, rivet and duct to perfection in this impressive 1:18 scale GT40 diecast. The hood is loaded with cooling ducts and air extractor vents. The doors are cut deep into the roof to allow helmet clearance for fast and easy driver changes during races just like on the real race cars. Notice the rivets on the windows. The interior includes authentic race seats, full instrumentation and even yellow tape on the steering wheel.

The magnificent paint scheme on this replica GT40 diecast pays tribute to Formula 1 racing legend Jim Clark. A master behind the wheel Clark won the 1965 Indy 500 in his rear engine Lotus Ford – the first rear engine car to win at the Brickyard! His Formula 1 championships in 1963 and 1965 were both the highest race win percentages in Formula 1 history!

This highly appointed Ford GT40 diecast is the perfect way to relive the glory of 1960s auto racing!
