Product Description
Bring home a legendary piece of racing history with this limited edition AFX Ford GT40 slot car. Inspired by the famous Ford GT40 chassis #1085, this collectible 1/64 scale model recreates the final GT40 ever sold. Finished in a classic baby blue paint scheme with blank white roundels, the car includes high-quality peel-and-stick decals so you can apply your own racing number.
Originally restored in 2007 by Racing Fabrications in the UK to its JWA full competition configuration, the real GT40 #1085 represents one of the most iconic eras of endurance racing. This AFX reproduction captures that heritage while delivering the performance collectors and racers expect.
Built on the advanced AFX Mega G+ chassis, the car offers exceptional speed, precision handling, and smooth performance on the track. The Mega G+ platform is known for its ultra-low-profile design, lightweight construction, and nimble handling, making it one of the fastest and most enjoyable slot car chassis available in 1/64 scale.
With only 2,004 units produced, this special edition is perfect for collectors, enthusiasts, and competitive racers who want a piece of automotive and slot car history.
Perfect for collectors and racers alike, this limited edition GT40 lets you relive the excitement of Le Mans and experience one of the greatest performance cars of all time on your slot car track.
