Description

A legendary Le Mans winner

The Ford GT40 MKII won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1966, ending Ferrari's years-long dominance of the race, a story later told in the film Le Mans 66 (Ford v Ferrari). As one of the best-known American race cars of the 1960s, the GT40 still stands as a milestone in motorsport today. The Technic set brings this historic vehicle to life as a build. The set launched in 2026 as part of the current Technic line-up, adding another legendary vehicle to the range's historic Le Mans race cars.

Classic race car proportions

163 unique parts across 793 pieces gives a moderate ratio of shape variety to size, fitting the original's smooth, aerodynamic surfaces. Black and light bluish grey form the chassis and body, while blue and red add classic racing-stripe accents. The result is an unmistakable 1960s motorsport silhouette. The ratio of 163 shapes to 793 pieces is relatively low, fitting the historic original's smooth, aerodynamic surfaces.

For motorsport history fans

With no minifigures, the focus sits on rebuilding a historic race car for display. The set suits anyone interested in motorsport history or collecting Technic vehicles. The parts list on this page covers all 163 shapes by colour and quantity. With no minifigures, the GT40 fits among Technic's pure vehicle models rather than its more play-oriented sets.

Using the parts list

The parts list on this page breaks down all 793 pieces of the Ford GT40 MKII by colour and quantity, based on 163 unique shapes. The overview helps sort bodywork, chassis and stripe pieces before building and track progress along the way. Buying secondhand, it lets you check that the distinctive blue and red stripe pieces are all present. If a piece goes missing later, the list shows exactly which shape and colour to reorder. Anyone comparing several historic Technic race cars will find the same colour-and-quantity breakdown on each model's page on this site.
