Ford gt40

Post by Tay99 »

Hi all.

Next build for me is the fujimi ford gt40.

I’ve decided to build this after seeing the trailer for the upcoming ford versus Ferrari film staring christian bale and Matt Damon.

I’ve cleaned up and primed the parts with Ultimate black and grey for the body work.

Nice! off to a great start. And that film looks pretty good, be interesting to see how accurate it is - you know, it is Holly Would. :lol:

Looking forward to what you do with this kit though!

Thanks, there’s not much you can do with this kit really as there’s no engine, it will be OOB might add some seat belts.
Hopefully the film will be better than most car/race films that have come before, the trailers do look good and Bales done some great acting just finished watching vice, about that geezer from down the road Cheney.

Hi all sorry for the lack of post I’ve been away on holiday. Got a lot done this weekend.

Body painted and decaled, the main tub painted and built. The metal rings on the seat were done with a Molotow chrome pen.
