This is a later McLaren version (1970) with a low wing. The body style has been referred to as the "Batmobile" style body. The car had a 4" wider track than previous cars. The engine was an awesome 510 cid, aluminum Chevy big block. It is reported that it pumped 800 hp! In real life this car commands a price of $230,000! Not bad for an old racecar!
Great job by GMP. Paint is the distinctive bright orange of the McLaren team. Tampos are correctly sized and adorn the body. There is also correct black paint patterning added to the nose section. The rear panel removes to reveal the awesome Chevy big block - it's even wired. "Goodyear" is delicately tampoed on each tire.
Another in a series of 1:43rd Can Am Racers released by GMP. A real treat and like potato chips, you can't just have one!
