About This Product:
The Imagination Project by Authentic Collectables is an idea born out of creativity and a desire to produce a range of cool cars with no limits.
‘What if’ is the main question that drives this project. What if a designer had absolutely free range to create a racing livery without any restrictions? What if a driver could decide how their car would look? What kind of art cars could artists create on race or road cars? What if we combined retro and modern racing styles?
The questions, ideas and outcomes created by this project are limited only by our collective imaginations. In fact, the only limits that are placed on the models created in this range is the limited edition number.
Driven by our own creative division and also working with other designers, artists, brands, drivers and more - the Imagination Project is a collection of interesting, wild and fun limited edition models for motorsport, car and art & design collectors.
Our fifth edition in this range is this awesome Ford FGX Falcon Supercar featuring a tribute livery to an incredible car, raced by a similarly incredible driver, to win the 2003 V8 Supercars Championship.
Originally appearing on the BA Falcon body shape - the blue, yellow and red Pirtek livery will surely bring back fond memories for many Ford fans and has been replicated in-house by the Authentic Collectables research and development team to fit the FGX.
The concept of applying historic liveries to new Supercar body shapes isn't new in the model car industry but it's something we've always enjoyed seeing and thought it was time we should produce a few of our own. Tribute liveries like this are perfect to be included in our Imagination Project range and this 'modern' interpretation of this livery looks really awesome.
While the FGX isn't the current shape racing now, we felt that the last Australian Falcon was the right base for this edition.
While we have replicated this livery and modified it to create this tribute model, it's important to acknowledge the designer/s who created the original race livery design. Without their incredible work to create such an iconic livery in the first place, a tribute model like this could never be considered.
This 1:18 scale model is officially licensed by Ford and has been produced in die-cast with opening parts. It measures roughly 280mm long, 115mm wide, 80mm high in an exclusive limited edition and will come with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
