"...On the 50th anniversary of Ford’s 1966 Le Mans victory, the company came out with an all-new Ford GT racing car, went back to Le Mans, and won again in this car’s class. The company also announced they would be making a street-legal version, in very small numbers. The new GT was technologically leaps and bounds over the 1960s version, and the shape far more aerodynamic. In 2016, Ford announced the first Heritage Edition GT, with a paint scheme exactly like the car that won Le Mans in 1966. Only 27 were built. Other Heritage Editions followed, commemorating legendary Ford GTs from the ’60s..." from A.J. Baime's piece in the WSJ on the Heritage edition Ford GT.
And have you seen the movie, Ford vs Ferrari?
