Details
An amazing piece of NASCAR history, this #24 Monte Carlo was driven by NASCAR Hall of Famer Jeff Gordon in the first road course victory in his Winston Cup career. Purchased in 1999 directly from Hendrick Motorsports, this car remains just as it was when it left the racetrack, powered by its 348ci Chevrolet V8 engine making an estimated 650bhp, mated to a 4-speed manual transmission and fitted with road-course-prepared suspension and brakes. In contrast to the converted circle-track cars of years past, this car was purpose-built for the road courses in the season. It was first raced at Watkins Glen on August 9, 1996, when Gordon finished fourth. The car returned the following year in May at Sears Point Raceway in Sonoma, where Gordon brought it to a second-place finish. Its third and final race – and its most important – was at Watkins Glen on August 10, 1997. Prior to that time, Gordon had achieved victory at every NASCAR venue, but a road course win proved elusive – until this race, when he won the race outright, after starting in 11th place and leading the race for 32 of 90 laps. The entirely original car has not been raced since, but has attended various shows and also participated in the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed in the U.K. Certain licensing restrictions apply, as the car carries trademarked sponsorship livery. The entire sale price of this race car will benefit the Arizona Animal Welfare League, Arizona’s oldest no-kill animal shelter, to assist in their mission to feed, shelter and care for local animals in need. **NOT STREET LEGAL, SOLD ON BILL OF SALE** **100% OF HAMMER PRICE TO BENEFIT ARIZONA ANIMAL WELFARE LEAGUE** **WILL BE SOLD AT APPROXIMATELY 2:30 P.M.
