This is the 1966 Ford GT40 MKIII Brown in 1:18 scale by Cult.
The 1966 Ford GT40 MKIII, particularly in its rare brown finish, was a unique variant of the iconic GT40 series, designed primarily for road use rather than racing. Unlike its track-focused predecessors, the MKIII featured significant modifications for enhanced comfort and practicality, including a longer chassis, a more spacious and luxurious interior, and a quieter exhaust system. It retained the powerful mid-mounted V8 engine but was tuned for smoother performance on public roads. What truly set the GT40 MKIII apart from its competition was its blend of racing heritage and road-going luxury, making it a high-performance sports car with everyday usability, a rare combination that appealed to discerning enthusiasts seeking both pedigree and practicality.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
