About This Product:

A new era began in 2023 when Gen3 Supercars were introduced to race in the Supercars Championship.

A significant evolution from the previous Gen2 platform, the Gen3 rules implemented a raft of changes for the Ford Mustang GT Supercar in 2023, with a large focus on achieving a much closer visual connection to its road going counterpart, more controlled parts and less downforce to encourage greater racing.

Two-time Bathurst 1000 winner Will Davison and Dick Johnson Racing joined forces for their third season together racing in the Supercars Championship for 2023. Davison's #17 Shell V-Power Mustang carried the familiar red, white and yellow livery across the majority of the season which has become a mainstay for the team in recent years. With slight tweaks to suit the new Gen3 body shape, it continues to be one of the best looking liveries on the grid.

Come the endurance season, Davison was joined by brother Alex once again on co-driving duties, with this model replicating their 2023 Bathurst 1000 challenger to complete the team set from the Great Race with the sister #11 car and the #98 Wildcard car.

This 1:43 scale model has been produced in high quality sealed body die-cast with clear windows, detailed racing cockpit and undercarriage details unique to the Gen3 floorpan.

Comprised of roughly 65 individual metal and plastic parts plus anywhere between 50-100 steps in paint and decoration finishing, this is a high quality collectors model for fans of this scale.

It comes in an exclusive one-off limited edition, presented in a display case with the model attached to a white base plate which features the car details printed on it. An individually numbered backing board featuring the edition number is also included as part of the package and acts as the Certificate of Authenticity for the release.
