Ford P68 White Kit

The Ford P68 in your hands: you decide the livery, NSR provides the rest

The NSR Ford P68 White Kit (reference 1050) is the perfect proposal for those who want to take a step further in the slot hobby: a fully buildable and customizable car, with an unpainted body so you can apply your own decoration from scratch. Whether you are a club racer looking for an exclusive livery or a modeller who enjoys both preparing the car and racing with it, this kit is designed for you.

Features and highlights

• White body: 18 g of unpainted body, ready to work with acrylic or enamel paints from brands like Vallejo, Tamiya, or Kaleido.
• Shark motor (ref. 3004) in sidewinder position, with excellent torque and progressive response.
• Transmission: 11-tooth pinion and 32-tooth crown gear. Balanced gear ratio for medium to high-length club tracks.
• Rear axle: diameter of 2.38 mm, NSR standard.
• Wheels: 16 mm on both front axle (ref. 5001) and rear axle (ref. 5002).
• Tyres: 18.5×9 on the front axle (ref. 5250) and 20.5×10 on the rear (ref. 5253).
• Low-profile guide (ref. 4841), ideal for narrow track lanes and fine-tuning steering geometry.

Scale and dimensions

The NSR Ford P68 reproduces this iconic prototype from the late 1960s in 1/32 scale. The model's dimensions are:

Track performance

The sidewinder configuration —motor parallel to the rear axle— of the Shark motor provides a low centre of gravity and very direct rear traction. The 11/32 pinion/crown gear ratio offers smooth and consistent acceleration, suitable for both technical tracks with many curves and faster layouts. The low-profile guide improves contact with the track and reduces the risk of derailments in corners with elevation changes.

As a complete kit, all components are factory-adjusted, but NSR makes it easy to replace any part with references from its catalogue, making this model an excellent base for those who want to evolve the build over time.

Ideal for…

• Modellers and slot enthusiasts who enjoy decorating their own cars with an airbrush or brush.
• Club competitors looking for a unique and distinctive livery in races.
• Collectors who want to recreate a specific historical decoration of the Ford P68.
• Preparers who wish to start with a complete car to make progressive mechanical adjustments.

Points to consider

The body is delivered unpainted and undecorated: it does not include decals or paint masks. For the best results, we recommend applying a primer coat before painting and using references from Vallejo, Tamiya, or Kaleido according to the desired finish. The Shark motor is a standard unit from the NSR catalogue, making it easy to replace with other references from the brand if a different performance profile is sought.

Frequently asked questions

Does the kit include decals or paint masks?

No. The Ford P68 White Kit is delivered with the body completely white, without decals or masks. The decoration is entirely the responsibility of the enthusiast.

What type of track is it compatible with?

By mounting a standard NSR low-profile guide, the car is compatible with the main track systems on the market. Check the specific compatibility with the included guide (ref. 4841) according to the type of track you use.

Can I replace the Shark motor with another NSR motor?

Yes. The NSR sidewinder architecture allows for swapping the motor with other references from the brand's catalogue without significant structural modifications, making it easy to adapt performance to each circuit or competition category.

Is it suitable for club competition?

Yes, as long as your championship regulations allow the Ford P68 model and the included components. The 11/32 gear ratio and Shark motor are common options in medium to high-level club categories.

What paints do you recommend for the body?

For slot car bodies in polycarbonate or ABS, acrylic paints from Vallejo, Tamiya, or Kaleido offer good results. Always apply a specific plastic primer before the colour layers to improve adhesion and durability.

Are the included tyres and wheels the final ones or should I change them?

The kit comes with standard NSR tyres and wheels, perfectly valid for racing from the first moment. If over time you want to fine-tune grip or adapt the car to specific surfaces, the extensive NSR spare parts catalogue offers multiple combinations to explore.
