I fell in love with my Motormax Ford GT model, 1:12 scale but traded it.
Now I want another.
Any of the colors, white, red, black , gold (or does it come in Heritage). Box is black. Mine came with a plastic display case with the car screwed to the black plastic base.
Not interested in smaller scale, I like the 1/12th.
Will trade straight across 1 for 1 for
triple signed (all three authors)
new copy of
Ford GT40 and the New Ford GT
224 pages
hardbound
32 pages color
100 b & w illustrations
foreward by Bob Bondurant and Sir John Whitmore
3 page essay by Dan Gurney, etc. etc.
These usually sell for $59.95 though one sold on ebay for $100 this week.
Not available from MBI or Classic Motorbooks
Let me know if you want to trade straight across

There is a fellow on GT40s.com that owns a model shop. I would bet willing to be he could source one of those for you. We have a subforum there called ""GT40 Memorabilia, Collectables, Apparel" and if you post there I imagine someone could help you out.

One guy advertising them on ebay said I could have the Motor Max
1/12th scale Ford GT concepts for $50 each if I ordered four.
Tempted, but then there's mailing costs and all. Still someday they will stop
making them and then they might go up in value...

Also on the box of the ones I had they didn't show the Heritage color scheme but in Autobooks/Aerobooks they have one with the Heritage color scheme at $99. I am pretty sure it is a Motor Max as well. Ford did show the Concept in that color scheme early on (they made three life size mockups as "rollers" for photography)
