Authentic Collectables 1/43 Cooldrive Racing #3 Ford Mustang GT - 2023 Betr Darwin Triple Crown Indigenous Round Diecast Model Car

The 2023 Darwin Triple Crown at Hidden Valley was the official indigenous round of the Supercars championship for the second year running.

Every car raced at the event featured an Indigenous-themed livery or artwork, produced by various indigenous artists with different stories behind their works.

Various teams and drivers have embraced indigenous artwork on their cars or helmets in the past years for the Darwin round but this was the second time the category as a whole came together in an effort to recognise First Nations people after a successful debut as an official theme in 2022.

The end result was simply stunning once again. The variety of colours and artworks beautifully weaved into the racing schemes of each team was a true sight to behold and made for an exceptional weekend of Supercars racing.

CoolDrive Racing have been known for their bold blue livery in recent years and their #3 Mustang driven by Todd Hazelwood at Darwin in 2023 once again looked brilliant with indigenous artwork flowing across the bonnet and roof of the race car. Featuring artwork by acclaimed Djerait artist Melissa Yaram Tipo, the design represented three Generations of the Blanchard family through the use of three crocodiles and pattern work and looked very impressive.

It makes for another incredible Darwin edition for collectors.

This 1:43 scale model is scheduled to be 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 is scheduled to be produced 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.
