Through two generations of the GT model, Ford has presented special editions of the supersport two-seater as many as eight times, recalling the day when, in the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans, the dominance of the invincible Ferrari was finally stopped. Now Ford has prepared a GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition based on a model from the 60s.

With the ninth special edition, the Holman Moody Heritage Edition, Ford pays tribute to the Ford GT40 Mk.II which, with third place in 1966, secured Ford the title in 24 Hours of Le Mans. The drivers were Ronnie Bucknum and Dick Hutcherson.

The car comes in original colors with start number 5 and red details. The GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition will have its premiere on April 15 at the New York Auto Show.

Today @Ford is proud to introduce our final Ford GT Heritage Edition: the 2022 Ford GT Holman Moody Edition. The Holman Moody race team played a critical role improving the GT40 MK II that led to Ford winning the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. https://t.co/7Iq1fswRls pic.twitter.com/7tXXbGdqQT
