1:43 Scale. James Courtney. Tickford Racing #5 Ford Mustang GT – 2023 Darwin Triple Crown Indigenous Round

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

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.

Designed by North Queensland Artist, Jedess Hudson. The Snowy River Caravans #5 Ford Mustang GT has undergone a striking transformation, swapping its teal, black, and white livery for a bold, orange-based design. The new look features black streaks and white stippled patterns throughout, evoking a sense of movement, freedom, and unity, while also reflecting elements of Indigenous culture and its rich cultured heritage.

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.
