The Ultimate Tanning Machine
 
   
The one and only Ford GT40 Mk II Roadster, often referred to as "X-1", was imported from England on a race-and-return basis. Handed over to Shelby American it had a brief but glorious career: one race, one outright victory!
 
Sadly, the Roadster was relegated to the history books when the customs men confronted Shelby. They demanded that the car be destroyed or the import duties paid! In 1970 the "old race car" was cut into pieces and buried at nearby Los Angeles construction site as the officials looked on.
 
Reliving those glorious moments!
 




 
Now Exoto is proud to resurrect this beautiful and historically significant member of the family of legendary Ford GT40 race winners!
 
Furious detail pushed to new Exoto limits!
 
It's the details that make the Roadster replicas a necessary addition to any collection! From the 100% unique roofless center body section, doors and windshield to the "double" rear spoiler secured by tubular brackets and unique, painted front hatch hinges and fasteners, no detail has been overlooked.
 




 
Each wonderful model replica features full opening parts, working suspension with genuine coil springs, intricate mechanical components, a fully wired and plumbed HP Ford 427 engine... all the furious detail and finish that have established Exoto's Ford GT40 Mk II replica as the best of the best!
 




 
But Exoto's engineers are rarely satisfied. New photo-etch metal windshield wiper, opening fuel filler, and genuine aluminum door panels contribute to ranking the GT40 Mk II Roadster amongst our proudest achievements in the diecast modeling world!
