Default Ford GT-40 JW Automotive Gulf

I will be putting this model of the Ford GT-40 that I bought for 9.99$US after I build it.



In this case:
that has 2 flood light that work on 2 triple A batteries.



Currently has Lamborghini Gallardo and a Viper.

I know, I laugh of myself.
Well, hope someday it will not be funny. Imagine Jabba sponsoring a FIA GT team and inviting us for the VIP area..

I have the slotcar version of this model. Detail is excellent with etched grilles and full interior as well as very detained tyres and wheels.

Should make up into a great model.
