Collector's Notes
The Ford GT-40 represents one of the most significant achievements in American motorsport history.
Originally developed during the 1960s, the Ford GT40 was engineered to challenge Ferrari's dominance in international endurance racing.
Ford achieved its historic breakthrough at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, capturing first, second, and third place and beginning a remarkable four-year winning streak from 1966 through 1969.
Hot Wheels introduced its Ford GT-40 casting in 1999, designed by Phil Riehlman.
For 2021, Mattel released this distinctive Metalflake Gloss Black variation as part of the Then and Now collection.
The Gumball 3000 graphics, classic racing number 4, and gold chrome wheels provide a distinctive appearance that separates this variation from traditional GT40 racing designs.
