If you’ve ever wanted to own a Ford GT with Hollywood provenance, this may be your chance. This 2017 Ford GT, previously owned by actor/comedian Tim Allen (serial no. H074 and VIN: 2FAGP9CW3HH200074), is heading to Barrett-Jackson’s 2026 Scottsdale auction through Silver Arrow Cars Ltd. One of roughly 1,350 examples built, the car only has 937 original miles on the odometer.
Tim took delivery of this GT through Galpin Ford in Los Angeles, one of the country’s top performance dealers. Finished in Ingot Silver with optional gloss carbon-fiber accents and matching 20-inch wheels, it’s fitted with a Heffner titanium exhaust, factory-protected paint film, and blue-finished calipers. Inside, carbon-backed Sparco seats trimmed in Alcantara match the “Dark Energy” theme. The cabin also includes a driver-adjustable pedal box, air conditioning, and a touchscreen infotainment unit, rare civility in such a hardcore machine.
Ford engineered the third-generation GT to prove a point. Developed with the Chip Ganassi Racing program that took a class win at Le Mans in 2016, exactly 50 years after the historic win in 1966. It is as close as you can get to a race car with license plates.
At its heart lies a 3.5-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 that produces 647 horsepower and 550 pound-feet of torque. Mated to a seven-speed Getrag dual-clutch gearbox, it launches from zero to 60 mph in three seconds and can hit 216 mph flat out. It can generate 1.11 g of lateral grip and stop from 70 mph in just 145 feet. Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes and lightweight carbon-fiber wheels keep it razor-sharp under pressure.
The chassis is a carbon-fiber monocoque built by Multimatic in Canada, complete with FIA-legal roll cage sections hidden in the roof. The hydraulically controlled pushrod suspension tech is straight from endurance racing. The body’s teardrop profile, flying buttresses, and active rear wing manage airflow, cooling, and downforce. The GT sits just 43.7 inches tall, and if you switch into Track Mode, it drops another two inches.
When new, Ford handpicked every owner through a private application process. Allen’s inclusion wasn’t a surprise given his racing history and long connection with Ford performance. Tim sold the car in October with 671 miles. The car was subsequently offered for sale by its second owner with 739 miles in 2022. Now, this low-mileage preserved GT with 937 miles is once again hitting the market with full documentation and accessories, and its original exhaust.
For those who follow Ford’s history, this car connects decades of heritage from the GT40’s 1966 Le Mans triumph to the GT’s 2016 win. Expect Tim Allen’s GT to draw intense interest when it crosses the block this January; it’s a rare combination of technology, provenance, and American racing heritage.
