Thank You...! I'm really Surprised that they don't Stock many of the Holiday, Military and Looney Toons, with the Holidays coming soon and Birthdays all year long I would Think they would bee Good Sellers...!
The more I look at that #2 LITE Car(Clean) the more I like it...! and there still is a couple more races left so maybe somebody else would like a Halloween or Specialty Nascar Model...!
In fact with all the different car schemes during one season for any given driver(s), the diecast hobby changed and dealers who before would have in stock most all diecast of that given year, changed to just stocking the main ones or the best in a certain brand maybe. It turned into too many to possibly stock, so individual dealers choose their priority diecasts to restock.
All the sponsers, which came after car manufactures stepped out and sponsors that had nothing to do with automobiles found a forum for sponsership and big money deals, (like Kelloggs and etc....) and that did helped nascar in a business sense, but it kinda went the other way for dealers.
So many schemes to choose from, its a buyers game now and the dealers can only hang in there and do their best for what they think may be in demand. And as said, individual dealers may have different ideas on that
Them Looney Tune die-casts are one of my favorite for collecting, but if you look on ebay at the prices of them Looney Tunes cars are, they can run under 20 bux, which is a low low price.
They held that race sponsored by Chevy and Warner bros once a year at Richmond (I think) for 3 years.... 6 or 7 chevys had the scheme in one race in each of them 3 years.
But before that started, the first Looney Tune car for a nascar race was one year before those 3 years, and that one was just a sponsor scheme on the car, and not a race scheme as the other 3 years were.
Anyway, that car was Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Taz
Most of the Looney Tunes cars I do have in my own collection , or at one time had... and this Taz car was one of the first.
Earnhardt Sr in the #3 GM Goodwrench Taz car and with Jr in the #8 without the Looney Tunes scheme.
Dale Jr, also drove the Looney Tunes scheme (including Busch Series)
Kevin Harvick when he was driving the Goodwrench car after Sr left us, drove the #29 Goodwrench Taz car in the Cup Series Looney Tunes series.
Incidentally, Kevin was a Cup Series Rookie on Dale Earnhardt Sr and Richard Childress Racing team when in that same year we lost Dale Sr.
Richard Childress Racing put Kevin Harvick into Dale Sr's spot on the team, driving the Goodwrench car.
Kevin's first appearance in the Goodwrench car was in the #29 and it was a pure White car ... and not the Black 'Terminator' car, which was in honor of Dale Sr.
#29 Goodwrench Taz
