1:18 2021 Ford GT #98 1966 Daytona 24 Hours Heritage Edition AUS037

In the 1960s, Ferrari dominated sports car racing, including the spectacular endurance events. This was the arena where legends were made - and sales - skyrocketed if the contender proved its worth first past the chequered flag. The 1966 edition of the Daytona 24 Hour Continental left the whole racing world in awe. It was Ford's time to shine as its now legendary Ford GT40 MK II made history as the first Ford to win an endurance race. What made the victory sweeter was Ford's 1-2-3-5 domination of the race, which kicked off an incredible season that saw additional 1-2-3 wins at Sebring and Le Mans. Now that spectacular win and the car which made history celebrated in the "2021 Ford GT #98 1966 Daytona 24 Hours Heritage Edition," a new 2021 Heritage Edition from ACME Trading Company and presented by The Bradford Exchange.
