Authentic Collectables ACD18F25P 1/18 Shell V-Power Racing No.38 Ford Mustang GT 2025 NTI Townsville 500 Indigenous Livery Race 20 Winner

The Shell V-Power Racing Team unveiled its striking, yet subtle 2025 Indigenous livery ahead of the Darwin Triple Crown and like many teams, carried it through to the Townsville 500 round. The bold new design was showcased on both Shell V-Power Mustangs and drew attention for its rich cultural significance and intricate detail.

The artwork, created by renowned artist Kurun Warun, flowed across the top of the Mustang and was inspired by the natural elements of the land and told a powerful story of intergenerational teaching and cultural sharing. At the heart of the design was a traditional kangaroo hunting dance, symbolising the transfer of knowledge and skills from Elders to the younger generation — a timeless tradition embedded in many First Nations communities.

Kurun’s piece featured a mother figure passing on skills, with his wife and three children observing behind her. On the opposite side, older community members were depicted watching as well, representing the collective responsibility of raising and guiding youth. The livery not only celebrated Indigenous culture but also honoured the vital role of community in shaping future generations.

The significance behind the livery was further strengthened when Brodie Kostecki secured his first victory for the Shell V-Power Racing Team on a highly successful Friday on the streets of Townsville. The lights-to-flag win followed a commanding performance in qualifying, where the 2023 Supercars Champion and reigning Bathurst 1000 Winner claimed his third pole position of the season.

This 1:18 scale model is scheduled to be produced in high quality die-cast with opening parts which includes the bonnet and both the driver and passenger doors.

A highly detailed racing cockpit can be seen through the molded clear glasshouse, or by opening the doors to examine the interior further. Under the bonnet includes a detailed 5.4-litre Coyote quad overhead cam V8 and engine bay surround. Underneath the model, the undercarriage details the unique Gen3 floorpan.

Comprised of roughly 204 individual metal and plastic parts, with anywhere between 100-200 steps in paint and decoration finishing, including tampo printing where possible, photo etched parts including the bonnet pints, brake rotors and more, this is a high quality, detailed collectors model.

It will come in an exclusive, one-off limited edition with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity presented in its own, Authentic Collectables branded protective cardboard folder.

This model is a must-have for SVPRT and Brodie Kostecki fans and collectors. Don’t miss your chance to secure yours—once it’s sold out, it won’t be available again.
