History
This is an original 1989 Winston Cup Race Car that ran several races that season including the Daytona 500 where it finished 22nd. Originally Driven by Ben Hess and sponsored by Purolator. The car still retains the same winning HSCRG setup ready for road courses such as Watkins Glen, Daytona and Road Atlanta. I have been running the car for the past 5 years with a milder motor on local road course open track events including the honors to be the first stock car to turns laps on the NJ Thunderbolt / Lightning road course. The car is well sorted, easy and fun to drive. Comes with one event, Hoosier Radial Tires made special for road course mounted on gold powder coated wheels. Bias set on gold wheels also included. Photos, crew jersey, and literature of when the car ran in 1989 also included.
