Biante Model Cars are thrilled to announce the 1:43 scale Project Sandman Tribute Edition built by Red Bull Racing Australia in Red Bull livery Project Sandman was the ultimate tribute to a Holden that held a special place in the hearts and minds of Australia’s car-loving population. 2014 marked the 40th anniversary of the 1974 release of Holden’s Sandman, a special version of its panel van aimed directly at the youth market, a car that perfectly complemented Australia’s beach-bound lifestyle. To mark the occasion, Holden-backed Supercars Championship team Triple Eight Race Engineering created the Project Sandman Tribute Edition, revealed on the eve of that year’s Gold Coast 600. The project had started in April 2014, Triple Eight working in conjunction with the GM Holden Design Department. On the outside it looked every bit the panel van it paid homage to – right down to a pair of carbon fibre surfboards on the roof! But beneath the bodywork lurked a real, pure-bred racing machine. Underpinning the Sandman exterior was one of Triple Eight’s former race cars; in fact, it was the chassis of the very Holden Commodore VF that Jamie Whincup had raced to eight victories during the 2013 championship season! “The heart and soul of the car is a V8 Supercar and it’s an absolute rocket!” Despite its retro styling, the former race car had also received a couple of technical upgrades. Gone was the sequential gearshift lever, replaced by paddles on the back of the steering wheel. The throttle cable was also replaced by an F1-inspired electronic fly-by-wire arrangement. The original 5.0-litre Supercars-spec engine was also soon replaced by a 5.7-litre unit capable of producing over 700 horsepower, with a range of guests having the opportunity to belt in alongside Triple Eight drivers for hot laps in the impressive beast. As with all Biante scale models, these items will come with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity with the 1:18 in our special premium packaging. “The heart and soul of the car is a V8 Supercar and it’s an absolute rocket!” Despite its retro styling, the former race car had also received a couple of technical upgrades.
