AutoArt 81912 1/18 Ford GT Le Mans 2019 J.Hand/D.Muller/S.Bourdais No.68 AUTO ART

Equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 twin-turbo engine with a maximum output of 600hp or more, the “Ford GT Race Car” is just 50 years since 1966 when the legendary machine “Ford GT40” dominated the podium at the “Le Mans 24 Hours”. Will participate in the race again in 2016. In a memorable year, he won the class at Le Mans. At AUTOART, we modeled each of the four special coloring machines in 2019, which will be the last race to participate in the Works that started in 2016. Car 66 is a black and white image of the “Ford GT40 Mk.II” that won the overall victory at Le Mans in 1966. Car 67 is the red and white of the “Ford GT Mk.IV” that won the 1967 Le Mans. Car 68 is a refined version of the blue, white, and red coloring of the 2016 Le Mans revival debut win. Car No. 69 uses the coloring of Car No. 1, which came in second in the 1966 podium monopoly. Not only the extremely wide and low proportions, but also the front and rear lids that are removable unlike the dihedral door that opens upward and the road car, the fixed rear wing and the huge rear diffuser are realistically reproduced.

The “Autoart Composite Diecast Model” uses “ABS”, which is a unique blend for the body, and “Diecast” for the inner body. Making the best use of the advantages of each material, while achieving high rigidity and a feeling of weight that is not inferior to the die-cast model, the reproduction of a strikingly realistic and sharp body line and more accurate dust than the die-cast body. It is a “totally new” innovative model car that enables matching and opening and closing of parts.
