About the Ford GT40 Mk II #2 B. McLaren / C. Amon Shelby American Winner 24 Hours of Le Mans 1966 Spark 1:43
TL;DR: Spark's 1:43 resin replica reproduces car #2, the Shelby American Ford GT40 Mk II driven by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon to outright victory at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. This win ended a long run of Ferrari dominance at the race, and Spark's sealed resin construction reproduces the winning livery with fine, accurate detail.
Ford's 1966 Le Mans win, achieved after an all-out corporate effort against Ferrari, remains one of motorsport's most retold stories, and this is a replica of the specific car that actually finished first.
Reproducing a Genuine Le Mans-Winning Livery
The #2 GT40 Mk II that McLaren and Amon drove to victory in 1966 ended a Ferrari winning streak at Le Mans and marked Ford's first overall win at the race, a result achieved through the Mk II's larger 7-liter V8 and Shelby American's race preparation. Spark's resin construction reproduces that specific livery, the correct body color and number board for this actual winning chassis, rather than a generic GT40 finish. The Mk II's wider rear haunches and larger intake compared to the earlier Mk I reflect real mechanical changes made to handle the bigger engine, and the resin build holds those proportions accurately even at 1:43. As with Spark's endurance racing range generally, there are no opening features, since the value of a historically significant racing subject like this is entirely in getting the livery and shape right.
A Cornerstone Piece for a Le Mans Collection
This is one of the most historically significant American racing liveries available at 1:43, a genuine turning point in Le Mans history rather than a manufactured "special edition." Paired with the earlier 1965 Mk I entries also produced in this range, it completes the story of Ford's Le Mans campaign from struggle to outright victory on a single shelf.
