Wow.  There's nothing like the NASCAR-approved front liscense plate!

I did see Bill's 1993 car up for sale recently - asking price is $50,000.00.

That's actually pretty cool, but he should have installed a TC nose, because that was what they used in Nascar in 88.  That's also the year Elliott won the championship. :ies:

The pic I have of the '88 Elliott car has the chrome grille nose (it's in a book about thunderbirds).
 
That replica is pretty cool. Lose the silly paint and wheels and you'd have yourself a decent 351-powered 'Bird

Hey, at least it's got a good engine, right?  I was expecting a high-mile V6.

Say what you want.... But if it was closer, and it actually has a 351, I'd be on that one.
