The Ferrari F40 needs no introduction. The final production car to be given the nod from Enzo himself was developed from the ashes of the Group B 288 GTO Evoluzione project. It ended up as a pinup supercar for the ages, despite being described by Gordon Murray as being a "go-kart with a big plastic body on top".
The Matchbox casting arrived in 1988 and spent six years mostly unchanged, with all mainline castings red with Ferrari emblems. Then, the wild liveries of the Tyco era set in for a few years before it returned to more normal looking designs following Mattel's takeover in 1997.
My casting I pinpointed to being a 1994 model. It had been very badly scratched all over and the iconic rear wing had been crushed. For this restomod, I naturally return it to red while adding in some of the additional detail plus I gave it a new set of five spoke deep dish boots.
