Twins (1968 & 69 Le Mans winning Ford GT40)


Recommended Posts

Finially completed the #9 Ford GT40 (Revell's reissue of the Fujimi kit) to go along with the #6 car (a resin model) in my collection. Chassis # 1075 was first and only car to date to win Le Mans back to back. Pedro Rodriquez & Lucien Bianchi won the 1968 race and Jacky Ickx and Jackie Oliver drove the same chassis to a win the following year. Enjoy...

Very nice builds.  I built the Thunder Vally resin kit when the first Fujumi MKII kits came out which had a chassis suitable for the TV kit.  I used some parts from the later Fujumi MKI kit to replicate a more complete engine than the plastic or resin kit.

Very nice! Really well done. Great attention tio detail. Can't recall exactly where I snagged the resin kit four or five years ago. Off the internet somewhere I'm sure. Had some challenges, like two left-hand rear suspensions in the kit, nothing for the right side, and a few other things.  Revell's kit was a dream compared to that.
