About This Product:
In 2024, Ford globally celebrated 60 Years of Mustang.
Since 1964, more than 10 million Mustangs have been sold across seven generations and the iconic sports car has become a phenom of popular culture and media.
Perhaps more significantly for racing fans, the Mustang has also enjoyed a storied motorsport record both internationally and locally. It achieved its first victory in the Tour de France Automobile in its first year on sale and is widely reported to have won its first circuit race anywhere in the world at the hands of Norm Beechey at Calder Park Raceway here in Australia in 1965.
Beechey also won the 1965 Australian Touring Car Championship that year, kicking off a run of five consecutive championships for Mustang with Ian Geoghegan taking out the next four between 1966 to 1969.
Since then, the Mustang has continued to win the hearts and minds of fans while recording significant victories and championships in a variety of racing categories around the world.
With the above in mind, we were honoured when Ford encouraged us to design a special limited edition Gen3 Mustang collectors model to celebrate the milestone.
Designed by Tristan Groves for Authentic Collectables and Ford Performance, Tristan has created a livery which takes the official 60 Years of Mustang logo by Ford and other notable branding elements to create a very unique collectable.
The various striping patterns which make up the base of the livery have been inspired by the history of Mustang and the offical 60 years logo. Those elements, combined with asymmetrical design characteristics, the menacing black pony on the sides, the number 60, Ford branding and red, white, black and deep blue colour scheme form an absolutely jaw-dropping livery.
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 is scheduled to be produced in an exclusive, one-off limited edition with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity signed by Tristan, presented in its own Authentic Collectables branded protective cardboard folder.

If you're interested in ordering/buying these models then you have two options available to you:
Pre-Order Model Cars At Your Local Stockist:
If a model car is marked as a future release on our website then please enquire about placing a pre-order with your local model car / hobby stockist as soon as possible.
Please note, all stockists are seperate businesses to Authentic Collectables, we are suppliers to them. Each stockist has different ways of how they accept pre-orders for future release models.
To find your local Authentic Collectables stockist, please click here.
Register Your Interest For Model Cars Here On Our Website:
You can also register your interest for future model car releases online with us to be notified when they are released.
To do this you need to navigate to the product page of the specific model you're interested in.
Once you're on the model product page, please click on the black 'Register Your Interest' tab which should appear on the right hand side of your screen on each future release product page on our website, enter your email in the relevant section and submit the form.
When the model arrives in stock you will receive an advanced email notification from us letting you know that it is in stock with a link to complete and pay for your order while stock lasts.
Please ensure your email address is right before submitting the register your interest form. Unfortunately a confirmation email isn't sent when you register your interest for models on our website, the only time the system will email you about that specific model will be when it arrives in stock.
We offer this option due to the amount of time models generally take to produce (usually 6-18 months) so you're not out of pocket until the model actually arrives.

For Future Release Prints, Books + Other Products:
Depending on the type of product or brand, we also offer a paid pre-order option on our website.
If a product is available for paid pre-order on our website then you will be able to add it to your cart and purchase it like any normal in stock item.
Details about the pre-order will be listed at the top of the product description if it’s available and when we expect it to arrive in our warehouse.
A paid pre-order option will only ever be available on our website for products that aren’t models - we usually use this feature for prints, books and other non-model products.
We offer the paid pre-order option online with us for these products because we can predict production and shipping times more accurately and are usually much faster than the model cars to produce.
Of course, if you wish to order these items from your local stockist, please make an enquiry with them.

For All In Stock Products:
If a product is in stock then it should now be available at your local Authentic Collectables stockist or you can shop online directly with us and it will usually be shipped on the next business day unless otherwise stated or it's a holiday period.
Product images used on our website may be of a real car photo, model car photo, mock-up, render, illustration, prototype or production sample and are used for display purposes only.
Please be mindful that the vast majority of products available from us are produced in limited edition numbers and will only be available while stocks last which is why it is very important to pre-order at a stockist (or here online where possible - see above) or register your interest for future release models.
