WTB: Exoto GT40 MKIV Andretti #3 "wreck"

Post by carsandcapp » Fri Jan 27, 2023 8:06 am

Hi All,

Greetings from North Carolina USA. New member here with a simple ask. I'd like to buy the Exoto model (retired) that depicts the Andretti driven (and wrecked) Ford GT40 MkIV from the '67 LeMans race. Or, I'd like to find a similarly scaled car that could then be modified to show the aftermath of that event/accident. Why? Because I am in possession of a magnesium wheel from that actual car and I would like to display this wheel and the model together. Please send a PM if you know of one for sale or if you believe you can assist in the modification of an existing non-wrecked model. Thanks in advance.

I have the Exoto #1 Mk1V 1967 driven by Andretti/Mclaren. Not sure if it would work for you.

There was a guy that converted these about 20 years ago, but I believe he passed away. Search for Dennis Koleber. They may pop up on Ebay from time to time. If you're going to make your own, might be easier to start with a Shelby Collectibles version, especially if you're going to destroy it.

Dennis Koleber who did the “dirty” mods passed away a year or so ago.
