Review: Fun Build. Not for beginners. - Difficult Build. Beautiful end result. My main complaint is when a part needs to be a mirror image of a previously built part, the instructions just give you a range of part #'s instead of step by step instructions. I'm somewhat dyslexic when it comes to diagrams, so this caused me some problems. After tearing it apart a couple of times, I finally got it right. Also, the tabs on the seat cushions were much too large for the holes they needed to go into. After a little sanding, shaving, and waxing, I got them together. All in all, it was a good project. Not recommended for beginners.
Review: Great Kit! - One of the funnest models that I have built in a while. I'd consider myself and intermediate modeler, and this was plenty challenging. It is well designed. The instructions are good. And it actually runs! For a wooden model with LOTS of moving parts and gears, the fact that it actually works is pretty cool. Well worth the investment of money and time. Highly recommended.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: String is required in multiple places within the instructions. This question is for those that have built this car. What size string was used?**
A: I've built two of this model--one for a friend--and never needed string.

**Q: What rubber bands are used**
A: There are an assortment of rubber bands sizes that come with the kit.  The instructions tell you what sizes to use and how to shrink them down to a very specific length. The rubber bands that drive the engine and make the car move are much wider than the others around  8 to 10 millimeters in width and look very heavy duty.

**Q: does anyone know what type of  car this is",  or is close too?**
A: I do not believe this car is suppose to be any specific Cabriolet (which is French for convertible).  it is very complex and took me 60 to 70 hours to put together.  It was very fulfilling to complete it with all of the moving and working parts -  especially the fact that it runs.  This kit is not for children.  Instruction details must be followed exactly.

**Q: Would like to buy just the tanker is it available.**
A: Your question is a bit vague, does the tanker stand alone or must it be purchased in tandem with something else? Perhaps if that is the case, look for the "tanker" to be offered individually by typing it into the Amazon search box and checking for its availability.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Build your own GT40
*by J***K on July 22, 2025*

This is an amazing piece of engineering. Experience needed in prior Ugears assemble so yoiu can be familiar with instructions and parts. This is an advanced kit. Many parts, many small parts. All fit together amazingly. Not quite yet completed. Body left to go, chassis assembled and it RUNS. Experience with automobiles will help in assembly and in understanding how things work. Fun kit. Lots of spare parts, could have used a couple spares that were not provided but a bit of glue fixed the problem. Must carefully follow instructions and logic when putting in the spring which drives all of the drive train -- fans, engine, differential, and half shafts. Now completed and would give six stars. Everything works -- transmission forward and reverse, doors open and close, windshield wiper works, suspension works, hatches open and close. Car runs about 12 feet on rug, forward and backwards, runs further on hardwood floor. Take your time, use fine sandpaper and good wax/paraffin and rub it in. As you add new moving parts driven by the windup spring, break them in -- several short runs in forward and reverse. Have fun.
