Not if I could get to it first. Man oh man where do you keep getting these awesome castings.

And get a load of the advertised Horsepower 220 HP, that would get only laughs now at any track, except for the classic lines and fabulous features. I really love it bro,

What make is it? and what year was it issued?

That is an RCCA Release from the early 1990's. Racing diecast was very popular then and sold like hotcakes. RCCA became the Action company and now MA( Motorsports Authenics).

I have a few Action nascar castings but nothing as nice as this one.

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!
The thing is, that car was likely driven to and from the track. I also have to give kudos to anyone daring enough to race a convertible at over 100 MPH at Daytona!

back when racing was racing, and the most skillful and the fastest car usually won.

I'm glad you did not have that one, I knew I had not seen it in any of your pics. Notice how the roll cage is "backwards"? The hoop is behind the window while the one support bar is going backwards. Pretty cool stuff, a very different type of racing back in those days!

You can see it a little better in this shot (the roll bar). I knew Joe Lee, pretty cool when I got him to autograph my boxes for these. Je just passed away a few years ago.
