@franklemire Is your Blue #1 Le Mans car an Exoto?

I have the Shelby Collectible version which has mistakes like the shifter is on the left side of the drivers seat instead of on the right side next to the door. The upper quarter panel side scoops are also larger and more rounded than on the Exoto versions. I can only find the 1/18 scale Exoto #1 in the three car sets which go for over $3,000 to over $4,000 dollars. I love how the car was in continuous development as the Daytona 24 Hour car does not have the top scoops on the top of the engine cover. They kept learning more about the car as they raced it and would make changes as then went.
