Niko Pajkovic — December 17, 2021 — Autos
American automaker Ford continues to expand its Heritage Edition series, this time offering a nostalgia-drenched version of its iconic GT that pays tribute to the brand's '60s-era partnership with Alan Mann Racing.
Revealed in just two teaser images, the new GT Alan Mann Heritage Edition appears to be arriving in the racing team's signature red, white, and gold color scheme. In fact, the entire model is said to be inspired by the experimental GT40 that the two companies teamed up to design in 1966. Of course, this would be the exact vehicle to help Ford win the 24 Hours of Le Mans that year.
Although the vehicle has yet to receive a full reveal, the teaser images have been enough to send the Internet into a frenzy, greatly appealing to fans of retro supercars.
