AUTOart / Biante 1:18 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase 3, Shell #3 Murray Carter, 1973 ATCC, Limited Edition #0066/2000, SIGNED

1:18 scale diecast model with signed Certificate of Authenticity.


Description

This is the standout piece in the entire auction. A 1:18 AUTOart reproduction of the Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase 3 in Shell racing livery as driven by Murray Carter in the 1973 Australian Touring Car Championship. The GTHO Phase 3 is arguably the most iconic Australian performance car ever built, and this model carries Murray Carter's personal signature on the Certificate of Authenticity. Edition number is #0066 of 2000 produced, keeping it in the highly desirable low-number range.


The model is stunning. The yellow Shell livery with brown and orange racing stripes is crisp and vibrant, the race number 3 graphics are cleanly applied across the doors, and the detail work is exceptional for the scale. The Ford-branded AUTOart box is in very good condition with the Murray Carter nameplate on the front panel. The model sits perfectly in its original styrofoam insert. The signed CoA is a genuine value-add for any Ford or Bathurst collector, turning this from a model into a piece of motorsport memorabilia.


Signed AUTOart Biante models in race livery with low edition numbers trade well above the standard road car variants. The GTHO Phase 3 casting in any form is desirable, and the Murray Carter connection to Bathurst history makes this a top-shelf collectible.
