2017 Ford GT ’66 Heritage Edition

The Ford GT has always been deeply rooted in a proud history that stems back over 50 years. The 2017 Ford GT ’66 Heritage Edition gives honors to the No.2 race car driven by Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon to victory at Le Mans in 1966. While the third installment of the Ford GT has evolved immensely since McLaren and Amon drove the GT 40 Mark II to so many victories in the late 1960s, there are plenty of similarities between these two vehicles as Ford once again makes a return to Le Mans.

The 2017 Ford GT ’66 Heritage Edition is dressed in Shadow Black paint that is offered in either a gloss or matte finish. The American supercar is accented with silver stripes and plenty of carbon fiber components. The interior of the vehicle includes Ebony Black leather seats, instrument panel, pillars and headliner. Only a limited amount of examples will be made and each vehicle will display a serialized ID plate that celebrates the historic Le Mans victories of 1966.

“Celebrating the anniversary of Ford’s historic victories at Le Mans has always been a part of the return of the Ford GT. The 2017 Ford GT ’66 Heritage Edition is a stunning tribute to the car that kicked off Ford’s string of Le Mans victories in 1966.” – Raj Nair, Ford executive vice president, product development, and chief technical officer
