Ford GT70.

[unclescott58]

Many here know, I love the old Ford GT40s and the modern Ford GTs. But, I've never been a big fan of Ford's GT90. But as time has gone on, I'm slowly starting to like that car too. Enough to pick up the AMT SnapFast Plus kit of the car. To go with my extensive collection of 1/25th and 1/24th scale GT40s and GTs.

Two models I'd like to find, and have never seen, are models of Ford's GT40 Mk III and Ford's GT70. I really have my doubts that anyone has ever made a model of a GT40 Mk III. But what about the GT70? It was fairly big news in the early 70's. Showing up in several races in Europe. It was not followed much over on this side of the Atlantic. So I doubt any of the American model companies ever considered offering a kit of the car. But, how about a European company? Especially a British company like Airfix? It's also something that I could see a Japanese company offering. Does anybody know? Has anybody ever offered a plastic kit in 1/25th or 24th scale of a Ford GT70? Heck, I be pleased to have one in 1/32nd or 1/43rd for that matter.

These may be hard to find. Both are 1/43 resin kits. One made by Graphyland and another by Provence Miniatures.

 Corgi shows one in 1/43rd scale. Don't know it it's still available. I think there was a slot car version at one time as well.   http://www.modelly.com/modelcars/members/fred/corgi-toys/ford-gt70-pjj/
