White body kit Ford MKII GT40

Your Ford MKII GT40 in white, ready to turn it into your own masterpiece

The NSR White body kit Ford MKII GT40 (ref. nsr1373) is the complete unpainted white body of one of the most iconic cars in the history of motorsport. Without decoration, without a predefined livery: a perfect canvas for you to decide how your GT40 looks on track.

Features and highlights

• Complete body of the Ford MKII GT40 in unpainted white plastic.
• Manufactured by NSR, with the same dimensional precision as their finished car range.
• Uniform white finish, ready for priming, painting, and decorating.
• Perfect for customization with acrylic paints (Vallejo, Tamiya, Ammo, or Kaleido, among others).
• Compatible with NSR chassis and mechanics corresponding to the GT40 model.

Scale and level of detail

NSR works in 1/32 scale, and this body maintains all the proportions and characteristic lines of the GT40 MKII: the wide wheel arches, the low and aerodynamic profile, and the side air intakes that make this Le Mans legend unmistakable. The level of detail of the mould is typical of NSR, with well-defined panel lines that facilitate masking and painting.

Ideal for…

• Modelling and decorating enthusiasts who want to replicate a historic livery of the GT40: the Gulf #6, the Shelby American #1, or any other.
• Club competitors who desire a spare body or prefer to work on their own colour scheme.
• Collectors looking to complete a custom project in 1/32 scale.
• Those who practice slot racing and static modelling and want to apply painting techniques to a functional car on track.

Assembly and preparation

As this is a white body, we recommend applying a coat of primer before painting to ensure colour adhesion and finish durability. Water-based acrylic paints are the most convenient option and can be airbrushed without complications. Masking fine lines with low-tack tape will allow you to separate areas with precision. Once dry and varnished, the body mounts directly onto the corresponding NSR mechanics.

Points to consider

This reference includes only the white body. The mechanics, decoration accessories (decals, grilles, etc.), and other components are not included and must be purchased separately. Check the compatible NSR references to ensure the set fits correctly.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly does this kit include?

It includes only the complete unpainted body of the Ford MKII GT40. It does not come with mechanics, decals, or additional accessories.

Is it compatible with the standard NSR mechanics of the GT40?

Yes, the body is manufactured with the same tolerances as NSR's finished models, so it is directly compatible with NSR chassis and mechanics of the GT40. We recommend checking the compatible chassis reference before placing your order.

What paint is recommended for this body?

You can use acrylic paints from brands such as Vallejo, Tamiya, Ammo, or Kaleido. Always apply a primer coat beforehand to improve adhesion and protect the final result with a finishing varnish.

Can I replicate the historic Gulf decoration of the GT40?

Yes, and it is one of the most popular applications for this body. You will need to find specific decals in 1/32 scale (there are manufacturers specialised in historical decals) and work with Gulf blue and orange colours. The result can be spectacular.

Can this body also be used as a spare part?

Absolutely. If you already have an NSR Ford GT40 on track and the body has been damaged, this reference is the easiest way to give the set a second life.
