All three of the cars will feature a&nbsp;Bespoke Anniversary Orange paint job to match the car that won the 1968 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps.<\/p>\n<p>The seats have the racetrack outline embroidered on the headrests. The racetrack outline is also featured in front of the rear wheel arch. Carbon fiber sill covers feature the words&nbsp;\u201c1st McLaren F1 victory Belgian Grand Prix 9th June 1968 &#8211; Bruce McLaren\u201d on them. The ignition key also pays homage with bespoke keys painted in the same color as the rest of the car and &#8220;Spa 68&#8221; text.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the car features MSO five-spoke lightweight wheels painted satin black. This contrasts from the bright orange paint job. Inside, there&#8217;s McLaren Orange contrast stitching to give the car plenty of visual flare inside the cabin. <strong>From a performance standpoint, McLaren did not alter the cars.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bruce McLaren&#8217;s win in 1968 was the start of McLaren&#8217;s motorsport history as a true contender. The win in 1968 was actually Bruce McLaren&#8217;s fourth Formula 1 victory, but it was the first in his own car with his fledgling team. That win set McLaren on the right track. Since then, the team would go on to win eight World Constructors&#8217; Championships and 12 World Drivers&#8217; Championships.<\/p>\n<p>The Spa 68 Collection cars were available from McLaren Brussels. However, at the time of McLaren&#8217;s press release, two of them already had buyers. The third is likely to follow suit if it has not already.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a
