Penrite Racing’s journey across the Tasman for Round 3 of the 2025 Repco Supercars Championship at the ITM Taupō Super 440 was one to remember – both for its emotional resonance and on-track success.

In the lead-up to the event, the team proudly unveiled a stunning ANZAC Appeal Tribute livery. In a poignant gesture of remembrance, the traditional gold wreath on the Penrite Oil logo was replaced with vivid red poppies on the bonnet, symbolising the ANZAC spirit. The car also featured the ANZAC Appeal logo and the words LEST WE FORGET prominently on the bonnet and rear, while the mirrors were also specially themed for the occasion. It was a beautifully executed tribute, marking a welcome return of ANZAC-themed liveries to the Supercars grid – all in support of an important cause.

The striking look of the Penrite Mustangs was matched by their pace on track.

Hometown hero Matthew Payne delivered a performance worthy of the occasion, dominating the weekend and claiming the prestigious Jason Richards Memorial Trophy. Payne scored a pole position for Race 8, victories in Races 8 and 10, and a fourth-place finish – a stellar haul that saw him claim the JR Trophy by 33 points over Chaz Mostert. In doing so, he became just the fifth Kiwi driver in history to win a Supercars event on home soil, continuing his rapid rise through the ranks of the 'Main Game'.

Authentic Collectables are proud to announce this special edition 1:18 scale model of the ANZAC Tribute Penrite Mustang. Part proceeds go to the RSL’s ANZAC Appeal, which helps raise funds to support veterans and their families in need. We encourage collectors to find out more about the ANZAC Appeal, or make an additional donation here: 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 scale replica of the Jason Richards Trophy will also be included for collectors.

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.
