DESCRIPTION This Ford J Car Le Mans race car is well done and about as realistic as Hot Wheels get. It is interesting to compare it to the matchbox Ford GT40. The Matchbox simply looks better. The engine bay opens to show the big block Ford motor that beat Ferrari in the 1960's. As a first-year Hot Wheel, this may be the least expensive of the line.
