5R539 at 1967 Le Mans... in scale

[TJinSA]

Stumbled across this Slotcar of 5R539, driven by Chris Tuerlinckx & Claude Dubois in the '67 Le Mans, by Revell.  Look closely at the color photo:

Each Slotcar on this site have at least a dozen photos of the live cars in action-- from 64 through 69 Fords:

The resemblance is incredible. Is that a picture of the real car with the track slot added to the picture?

That's the car that had the roof cut off and changed into a coupe right?

I don't run slot cars but I bought all of them when they came out.  They offered the GT 350, Cobra and Daytona coupe cars, even the Jaguire XKEs.

I love the back drop use as well.

That's actually a picture of the slot car, with track, superimposed on a pic from the race!
