Through Ford’s Heritage branch, you can buy a one-of-a-kind Heritage Edition Ford GT. It is the smallest production run available for purchase, and it is only the third Gulf-liveried Heritage Edition. The car is scheduled to be sold at Barrett-Jackson’s auction in Arizona this fall. Ford’s Heritage Fleet, which debuted earlier this year, comprises approximately 500 vehicles that represent significant milestones in the company’s history. Concept and production cars, early tests of electric vehicles, events such as the production of the 10 millionth Mustang, and a wide range of cars showcasing Ford’s performance are all featured. You can now get the second one. This vehicle is a 2006 Ford GT Heritage Edition. It is the first model that anyone can buy and only the third of its kind. This is the Ford Heritage crossover. It will be sold at the Barrett-Jackson auctions in Scottsdale, Arizona, in September. The sale proceeds will be used to care for and refurbish the remaining Ford Heritage fleet. The GT started as a concept car based on the winning GT40 race cars. It was made to celebrate Ford’s 100th anniversary. In fact, the GT40 was the first concept car, and it was shown off in Detroit in 2002. Because Ford couldn’t reach a deal with the company that owned the “GT40” name, the cars would only be called “GTs” when they went into production. Although the electronics in the second-generation Ford GTs have been improved, the original version remains very popular. A modern 5.4-liter V-8 supercharged engine and six-speed manual gearbox are paired with a design that evokes the spirit of endurance racing in the mid-1960s. It’s easy to see why. With 550 horsepower, it has more than enough power for any situation, and it sounds great when you drive it. Sure, “Go like hell.” Heritage Edition cars were added for the 2006 model year of the GT. They were based on the Gulf Oil color that the GT40s wore when they won Le Mans back-to-back in 1968 and 1969. They had orange and sky blue paint on them. This is the third of just 343 that were made, making it a very rare car. It has, however, not lived behind a silk rope in a museum. The car has been owned by Ford its entire life and has approximately 8,435 miles on it. At the same time, it’s an opportunity to acquire a highly valuable and collectible car. However, this GT has already covered a lot of miles, and a few more would make owning it a lot more enjoyable. The past of Ford is here and ready to go. Even a regular Ford GT costs close to seven figures, so this one is likely to sell for a substantial amount when it comes up for sale. However, if you’re a fan of the blue oval, this is the right machine for you, as the proceeds from the sale will support the company’s legacy fleet.
