After a Heritage Edition in the black look of the first Le Mans winning Ford GT40 from 1966 was launched last year and this year another Heritage Edition in the red livery of the 1967 winning car followed, Ford now announced the final Heritage Edition of the current Ford GT for the modelyears 2019 and 2020 during Monterey Car Week. It uses one of the most famous and legendary racing liveries of all time: the bright Heritage Blue and the vibrant Heritage Orange of Gulf Oil. The reason for this is simple: chassis number 1075 of the original Ford GT40 received this paint job for Le Mans 1968 and won the race with the team of John Wyer not only this time, but also in 1969.

This Ford GT Heritage Edition shows the main parts of its bodywork in Heritage Blue, while the front bumper and a wide central stripe feature the Heritage Orange. On request, customers can opt for an indicated start number display, for which purpose the visual carbon structure of the actual components is uncovered for the first time at the current GT. For modelyear 2019 the number 9 is indicated, for 2020 it is the 6. These are the respective start numbers of GT40 chassis number 1075 in Le Mans 1968 and 1969. Regardless if the number indication has been ordered, the Heritage Edition gets A-pillars and the mounts of the wing mirrors in bare carbon. The mirror housings are painted in silver. In the wheel arches sit the 20-inch alloy forged wheels with a dark anodization, black wheel nuts and orange brake calipers.<\/p>\n\n\n
