Ford is celebrating a landmark moment in the company’s motorsports history with the 2021 Ford GT Heritage Edition.

The new Heritage Edition is finished in the same livery as the Daytona-winning GT40. It has a black hood and stripes, red patches and the No. 98 on the sides. It is available with either a set of Heritage Gold 20-inch one-piece forged aluminium wheels or a carbon fiber wheels if you tick the Heritage Upgrade Package option. The interior is wrapped in Alcantara.
