Oh. My god. 👀
Image shows a very sleek black car, a 2017 Ford GT, with white decals and the number 2 painted on its side. The car is very shiny against the matt blue background of garage doors and a black road. Text on one of the garage doors says every car has a story.
Ready, set, go! Alan Hartman’s legendary Ford GT is now available to bid on, with proceeds from the sale primarily benefitting SpecialEffect!
We can’t thank Alan, and everyone involved, enough for their support and generosity. #FordGTAuction
