Ford GT40 1966 Revell - Universal Hobbies 1:18
The Universal Hobbies Ford GT40 is a diecast metal model. The Proportion and Scale Deviation of this model are too big, resulting in a model that looks noticeably "stretched" and oversized for its 1:18 classification. Simplified and strong details like window frames in relief contribute to a model that can be used as a toy.

Got this model as a Revell model-kit in the late 1990s. There you could open 4/4: both doors, the hood and the little front lid which hides a spare tyre. Isn't that realized in this model?
