2021 Ford GT Heritage Edition is chock full of vintage racing livery

Ford has unleashed two new versions of its GT supercar for 2021: GT Heritage Edition and Ford GT Studio collection. The Ford GT Heritage Edition pays homage to the American carmaker’s historic victory at the Daytona 24-Hour endurance race 55 years ago. The car in question is a 1966 Ford GT MK II driven by Ken Miles and Lloyd Ruby. According to Ford, the GT Heritage Edition is the first to feature vintage racing livery famous for a race other than Le Mans.

“For this Heritage Edition, the Ford Performance team went deeper into the Ford GT’s race history and crafted a limited-edition model that stylistically honors the 55th anniversary of the Daytona 24 Hour endurance race that would eventually lead to our successes at Le Mans,” said Mike Severson, Ford GT program manager.
