2017 Ford Mustang Bathurst 77 Special

The Tickford Bathurst 77 Special was created to commemorate one of the most significant moments in Australian motorsport history — the 1977 Bathurst 1000, where Allan Moffat and Colin Bond delivered Ford a dominant 1–2 finish in the legendary XC Falcons. That result cemented the Moffat/Bond pairing as icons of the sport and remains one of the most celebrated victories in Bathurst history.

Tickford, as Ford’s official performance partner, produced the Bathurst 77 Special as a strictly limited, no-compromise tribute, blending modern Mustang performance with authentic period-inspired design cues drawn directly from the original 1977 race cars. With just 77 vehicles worldwide, the build number itself reflects the year of the victory, making each example a genuine collector-grade homage rather than a cosmetic edition.

This particular car is Build #14 of 77 and presents in exceptional condition, having travelled just 9,000 km. It wears the full Bathurst 1977 livery, accurately replicating the appearance of the Moffat and Bond XCs, and features a number of unique details exclusive to the Bathurst 77 program.

A standout of the car is the red driver’s seat, mirroring Allan Moffat’s own race car — a deliberate and historically correct detail that sets this example apart from other modern performance Mustangs and reinforces its motorsport authenticity. Combined with Tickford-specific badging, bespoke interior finishes, and period-correct colour selections, this is not a car that can be replicated or confused with a standard build.

Unlike many limited-edition cars that are preserved but rarely enjoyed, this example has been immaculately maintained and thoughtfully enhanced, remaining true to the Tickford philosophy of building cars to be driven as intended. The result is a highly collectible Australian motorsport tribute that delivers genuine supercar-level performance, unmistakable presence, and deep historical significance — all in a package that remains usable, reliable, and engaging on the road.
