Le Mans 1976 provides the setting for this broad-bodied Ford Gran Torino #90 in Truxmore colours. Goodyear, STP and other period markings fill the blue-and-white livery.

The Scalextric Ford Gran Torino #90 Truxmore Le Mans 1976 (model number C2655) is a unique and rare 1:32 slotcar. This model reflects the legendary American NASCAR car that was taken by Bill France to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1976.

This model is highly sought after among collectors and lovers of classic racing cars. The main features are:

Specifications: Equipped with Magnatraction (magnetic system for better handling) and Easy Change towing contacts.
Livery: Performed in the signature white-red-blue Truxmore / STP sponsorship.
Detail: High-quality finish that accurately mimics the brutal shapes of the American V8 machine.

The Historical Story (Le Mans 1976)
In 1976, the organization of Le Mans (the ACO) created a special class called "Grand International" to invite American stockcars. This was meant to attract extra spectacle and a new audience.
