Chaz Mostert to use converted former Mustang chassis at Gold Coast 500
Chaz Mostert's Toyota was heavily damaged in a crash near the end of the Bathurst 1000.
He clipped the inside wall at Forrest’s Elbow, sending the car into the outside fence.
His team will use spare chassis WR 029 for the Gold Coast 500.
Mostert first raced WR 029 as a Ford Mustang in 2025, and it was later converted into a Toyota Supra.
The chassis can be used with different manufacturer bodywork and engines because Supercars cars share a common underlying chassis and components.
Such conversions are possible but uncommon, as teams often build new chassis instead.
Mostert is set to race the converted chassis at the Gold Coast event.
