Review by CoMod martinmm on the Carrera D124 Ford GT40 MKII Sebring 1966 "No.2"
(23746)
The third color variant of the Ford GT40 MKII is the car entered by Shelby American Inc. in the 1966 12 Hours of Sebring. Drivers were Dan Gurney and Jerry Grant. However, the car never finished the race.
The Carrera miniature is very faithfully reproduced. Only the Good Year logos had to be improvised for licensing reasons, but this doesn't detract from the overall impression. Nevertheless, it does raise the question of whether the logos shouldn't perhaps be omitted entirely.
The technology is identical to the two versions released in 2009. The improvement to the front lighting is striking, and it's now significantly brighter.
Let's hope that Carrera will release one or two more color versions of this classic.
