Something a little different Exoto 1/10 Scale. Clearly this was damaged pretty good at some point in its life and whom ever it belonged to likely felt their heart drop. I bought this because it makes an interesting shop piece, but that is all it will ever be so just think of Ken Miles and the crew at Shelby American going over this car in the shop.

@modeldadeeee Brings a tear to my eye knowing what this was worth and cost but what is done is done and it does still make an interesting display piece.

For those who don't know the gear shift works in these Exoto 1/10 scale GT40 MK II's you can position the shifter in each gear in the shift gate. The toggle switches on the dash have movement as well. Here are some more photos.

In this photo you can see the shifter is now in the middle of the shift gate. This last photo you can see the two throttle return springs and the spark plug wires.
