So where are the miniature wing cars?

[nascarxx29]

  The M2s are everywhere and the paint jobs arent doing it for me .If they package the daytona again with the hauler or the 2 post lift they display better

I bought a 5 pack of the lifts from them.  They do make cool displays.

They had 2 on the haulers at our local Toys R Us.
If anyone's interested, I'll look and see if they are still there.

Here's one from Amazon for $15 that has the "dirty" Daytona:

And the one with the clean race Daytona:

Ba-ZING!

I don't see any Europeans in the background.    Couple of Texans, a Kiwi and a Bass Boat.  But they are all American power.

Here are a couple of customs meant to be local guy dirt track racers.   The Daytona's  chassis is based on the "Dirt Track Super Stock" MPC series from the early '70s merged with a body from the 1/25th AMT Daytona  sold today.  The paint scheme is based on a guy who ran Nascar Late Model Chargers in the Northwest in the 1970s. 
The Charger 500 is based on a dirt track series from the 1960s.  The body was a "glue-bomb" General Lee I picked up used.  The lettering is a tribute to what may have been, had Mary, Larry and Deke actually beat the train to the crossing.

So the deal is...   the lighter colored #7 is a prototype sample that ERTL submitted for review before production started.    The sheet below is the graphic layout. There is a Post It note on the sheet saying, "change color to dark blue".    There are a couple of small differences under the car too.

[held1823]

so it DOES exist. anyone here have one?

[A383Wing]

wow, never seen one until now

so that's the short track car without wing? 

[5hunert]

It's the unsponsored version, with the "blank canvas" paint job.

[held1823]

it's the first time i've ever seen evidence of the clear one existing. the missing wing/bottle cap might as well be made from unobtainium, i'm thinking.

[WINGIN IT]

You sure the clear one isn't some turbine version that Wonder Woman drove?? 

[nascarxx29]

I still got my Phatz cars
