To add to the previous comments, the bodywork is completely wrong. It covered the rear wheels down to the spinners and the fronts to just above. Also, the exhaust vented to the rear, not the offside. This is NOT the Le Mans car, but is similar to cars run in subsequent races.

questionable detailling. the spinners should be 3 eared, the boot should have a gearbox in it, the bonnet vents shouldn't be there, they were only on the dbr2, the vents on the front should be foglights, there was no fire extinguisher on display, and the dbr1 usually only has 1 seat. the wheels are too wide, and the tow loops should be yellow and thin plate metal, not the I beam design featured on this model. sadly, shelby collectables seem to have taken details from the dbr2 and the dbr1. i guess you get what you pay for, but being as exoto are still dragging their heels, this is the only 1:18 dbr1 model you'll see for a while yet. stunning car in real life by the way, and my personal favourite.
