2022 Ford GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition

Ford’s 2022 GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition paid tribute to the gold-and-red GT40 Mk II that helped complete the company’s 1966 Le Mans sweep.

History and purpose

Ford’s 2022 GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition paid tribute to the gold-and-red GT40 Mk II that helped complete the company’s 1966 Le Mans sweep. The original manufacturer announcement connects the theme with the Holman Moody team and chassis P/1016. This profile concerns the modern factory road-car edition; the original race chassis already has its own record and is not uploaded again. Ford’s regional retrospectives give conflicting subset totals of 21 and 50. The exact manufacturing field therefore stays unset. Eligibility rests on the documented complete road-GT programme ceiling, which keeps the edition’s rarity evidence intact without choosing an unsupported exact number.

Design and engineering

The supplied Goodwood photograph displays the gold body, red front treatment and number-five theme. Those visible features agree with Ford’s documented Holman Moody tribute. Exposed carbon details place the historical colours on the contemporary GT’s distinctive structure. The relationship is especially clear beside photographs of the earlier racer: the livery provides the connection, while the narrow cabin and sculpted airflow passages belong to a different engineering era. The image source uses a 2023 display label, but Ford’s programme reference remains 2022. A later show appearance does not create another annual edition or change the vehicle’s original factory identity.

Identifying the original configuration

Keep Holman Moody Heritage Edition together in the heading and attach the actual customer car’s chassis documentation when available. The number five is a historical livery reference, not an individual production sequence. Gold and red appearance alone cannot authenticate a factory edition, so the model photograph is supported by its explicit source identification and by the original manufacturer description. The supplied car receives no invented serial number. Likewise, its connection to P/1016 must remain commemorative: it is not a continuation chassis, a replica recorded as original or the actual 1966 race car in modern bodywork.

Collector context and preservation

For collectors, this edition is particularly useful when the catalogue already includes the original P/1016 chassis biography. Cross-reference that historical subject while keeping the physical identities separate. Preserve the modern car’s delivery documents, identification, finish and service record with dated photographs. The conflicting manufacturer totals should remain visible in research notes until an authoritative reconciled ledger resolves them. That uncertainty concerns the exact subset tally, not the existence of the factory edition or the documented road-GT parent programme. Counts are non-additive: the Heritage cars belong inside the road-GT total and are not extra manufacture beyond it.

Reading the evidence for this profile

The original source links below identify the programme and the historical statements used in this article. The photograph has its own creator and licence record, separate from the manufacturer’s vehicle history. Keep both when transferring this profile into a collection catalogue. A manufacturing tally describes how many cars belong to a defined original programme; it does not measure how many survive, how many are publicly visible, or how many retain all their original components. Those individual questions require dated chassis and restoration evidence. The reference year likewise describes the programme’s introduction or named historic configuration, while the supplied caption states the photographed setting and any established individual identity. This lets future research expand the car’s history without blurring the scope of the record already assembled here.

Specifications and verified rarity

Frequently asked questions

What is the Ford GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition?

A named 2022 Ford GT factory tribute to Holman Moody and the original P/1016 race car; the modern road cars and the existing historic chassis record remain distinct.

What engineering defines this Ford?

Twin-turbocharged 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6. Rear mid-engine; seven-speed dual-clutch transmission; carbon-fibre body. These are the documented programme or preserved-concept specifications. Connect an individual vehicle’s installed components to its own dated records before assigning a factory configuration to that particular example.

Why is 2022 the reference year?

It identifies the introduction or original historical configuration described in this article. The photograph can show a later example or a later display of the original subject. The source inventory’s original heading remains an identity alias wherever the date or model name has been corrected.

How should an individual GT Holman Moody Heritage Edition be documented?

Start with the chassis identity and connect it to dated construction, registration or custodial records. Keep exterior, interior, engine and underbody photographs together. Record changes to finish, equipment and mechanical specification as separate events, so the physical car’s history can grow without changing the definition of the original programme.

What rarity or archive scope is verified?

Named original 2022 Holman Moody Heritage factory edition within Ford’s worldwide 1,350-road-GT ceiling. Manufacturer regional retrospectives conflict between 21 and 50 examples; exact subset manufacturing tally remains unknown. The original 1966 P/1016 race car is a separate existing chassis profile.
