In 1988 Bobby Allison came out to Saugus speedway in Saugus California and drove a Sportsman car (#64) owned by Rich De Long Jr. We built the engine and crewed for Rich so we were there helping on the car. Of course we all got to take pictures with Bobby and sat around listing to Bobby tell us some stories. Bobby set the track record that night. We also got to wear radios and listen to Bobby talk on his radio while he was driving.. he's a crack up .. He is a hell of a nice guy. There are videos on RUclips showing that special night at Saugus. (Search Bobby Allison at Saugus Speedway). IIRC.. Bobbies next race was at Pocono where the crash happened that ended his racing as a driver. BTW .. LEAVE THE CAR THE JUST THE WAY IT IS!!
According to the EPA if your car is newer than 1952 and you have modified it beyond its stock configuration. they can legally seize your vehicle although Most states do not allow them to but they don't have complete control yet do they once currency is digital we will do what they say or they'll turn our money off
@@Stapleton42 Exactly, it isn't so far gone that it needs to be repainted in order to cover new panels or what needed to be skinned. Its a race car, not a sponsor/PR/show "race car". I'm not a fan of "keep it all original" nor of fauxtina BUT these cars had frames long before they became tube chases cars. Heck, to many enthusiasts nowadays a car with a separate standalone frame is just as much of an eye-opening wonderment for them as the first time they felt big-cube NA torque in a hi-perf car. Yep, I watched through to the end, the 'bonus" that you asked to mention. "Wisconsin Mafia" info/history would be 👍🏼🏁😎 Good on ya, both of y'all!!
This is exactly like the arguments for and against plastic surgery. Some people are afraid of time and age, but it comes to all of us and it's completely unavoidable. As @anthonyplanas3606 said, it's only original once, and people shouldn't be afraid of what they see when they see what 45 years does to a car. It's too cool to see how basic the race hardware was back in the day compared to the almost limitless budgets of today. Leaving it exactly as it is will preserve that for all to see. Either way, it's a very cool piece of history.
I think Bud Moore racing was one of the classiest race teams in the business. I was in Daytona to watch the 1983 Firecracker 400 where Bobby Allison won the race in the Diegard Gatorade Buick. But ealier that morning, my brother-in-law and I stopped at the Howard Johnson's for breakfast. Marty Robbins came in and first sat in the booth behind us. Then shortly, Bud Moore and some of the race team came in and invited Marty Robbins to join them in a backroom. This was the year Dale Earnhardt drove the Wrangler Ford for Bud Moore.
Bobby Allison holds a special place in my heart. Years ago, 1991, I was 18 and going through chemo. I had met Bobby before, but he was appearing at a local establishment and signing autographs the owner of the establishment her significant other were friends of mine and they were asking how things were progressing with my health. I didn't know it, but Bobby heard the conversation. I was getting ready to go home and he stopped me and asked what was going on. I told him and he gave me words of encouragement and wished me all the best with my health. I never forgot that nor will I. It met so much to me that he took the time to encourage me during that difficult time. That is the gentleman Bobby is.
@@Stapleton42 It helped me a lot and to this day it means a lot. I am now 50 with a 16 year old son, who I am thankful for and is my world. I enjoy your videos and I watch them from start to finish. The mid 70's through late 80's are my favorite time period in local and NASCAR racing. As diehard of a fan I am, I still learn a lot from your videos. It is obvious your care and love of the sport. It shows in each and everyone.
Bud Moore is the reason I ran the #15 my entire racing career. Saw Bobby win in Ontario, Ca. in 1978 driving that car. Bud Moore, Bobby Allison two Great Americans.
I too met Bobby Allison In Nashville during an autograph session at Frank Davis Buick, the day of the Nashville 420 in 1984. Bobby, and his PR person, Tom Roberts, were so accomodating to me. Tom Roberts invited me and my wife to be his guests in the Allison pits for that nights race. It was a thrill for me to be a part of that night. I am glad people are collecting and perserving the cars from the earlier history of NASCAR. I don't feel it is the same sport as it was during the 70s, 80, and 90s.
TR invited me to go with him to Huntsville the day after the Nashville race to watch Bobby Allison run a new Buick V6 in a stock car race. If understood correctly, Davey built the car. It was a Buick Century #22 painted just like Bobby's white with red numbers and lettering Buick Regal cup car. One of the coolest experiences i've had. When I went to the autograph session on Saturday before the cup race, I took a 1/24 scale Monogram model of Bobby's 1983 national champion cup car car. My plan was to get Bobby to autograph the car. I got there before Bobby arrived and met TR beforehand. I show TR the model and aksed if Bobby would sign it. He told me Bobby would. But when it cam my turn to get Bobby's autograph, I told Bobby it was a gift to him. He examined it as though he'd never seen one before. He made a comment that was flattering but certainly funny; he looked at TR and said something like"TR, this looks better than one that Gary Nelson builds. Of course that got a chuckle from everyone standing around.
The days of Music City 420's are long gone... never to return. I lived 20 miles from the track and remember, after the races, they would open the gates to the infield and you could walk in with a very good chance of meeting many of the drivers. Even though they were ready to get showered and go home, they took the time to talk to you and sign autographs. Meeting Cale Yarborough was a dream come true for me as a kid! It seemed drivers were just "Good Ole Boys" back then... who have evolved into "NASCAR Superstars" today.
I remember those days as well. It was cool as a young man to be among good race drivers. One specific race I remember is listening to AJ Foyt sitting on the pit wall talking about his favorite things in life; racing, fighting and f..king, in that order.
Hey Mitch I just wanted you to know that I was the viewer a while back that had mentioned that my father and Gregg were really good friends back in the late 70’s and early 80’s and I had asked if you had been down to the old shop before. I also worked for James Hylton and could probably get you hooked up with the guy that basically grew up in James shop and ended up being his right hand man for building and maintaining the cars for James from the time he was just a little boy all the way till the last race in Talladega before his tragedy on the way home. He even still goes with Brad Smith who has drove the 48 Arca car for several years and still does even after James passed away. He could give you some amazing stories from back in the golden years of Nascar as well as some in the past 20 years. If you talk to Gregg just ask him if he remembers Mike and Mitzi Pettit. I’m Randy their son.
I used to work at SRI Performance and we kept this car in our warehouse briefly. I was fortunate enough to work with one of the guys who built this car and he also claimed that there was no doubt in his mind that this car is the car they used in the 79 Daytona 500. Awesome barn find! Hopefully it can be restored while also keeping it as original as possible
I was fortunate enough to meet Bobby Allison, Davey Allison, Alan Kulwicki, Kyle Petty, and Ken Schrader at the Slinger Nationals in 1988, which was a week before Bobby's Pocono wreck. Pictures with all and autographs all. Fantastic people. Thank you for keeping the history alive. You guys rock!
Of course we made it to the Bonus section! And of course you found one of the cars that launched NASCAR into Nationwide television viewership! Mitchell and Logan, we have never met but we feel like you guys are family on the other side of the country! Thank you for doing this, we will always share and help promote your work! Your channel is like the car culture you were just talking about, both of you are showing so many how its supposed to be in a really odd time, thank you for reaching out to all of us. Jennifer Spencer and I really enjoy and appreciate how you make us feel like family each week. I see your #3 wrangler good wrench hand drawn on Stapleton42 post card you drew for Spencer each morning on the fridge while getting lunches ready and wonder what adventure your on today before I go to work! Keep the adventures going for us all! Love from The Oregon Houlihan’s!!
I appreciate how you describe racing isn't just about cars, it's about people. Reading about our local legends like Dick Trickle, you see how much the person means to so many, how they touched lives, and then they went racing too. When I meet my hero, Dick was shorter then me. But he's still larger then life to me at the same time.
I too want to see a video of the Daytona recreation car my brother built from scratch, basically. They started with a beat up green 1969 Charger with the sail panels/C pillars. They used the car just to build a jig and a few parts of the car. It was so rusted out, the only thing they used is the a Pillars.
I grew up in Greenville, SC and got involved in the racing scene at Greenville-Pickens Speedway in 1970 working on Larry Gilstrap’s #29 Ford Fairlane driven by Johnny Allen. Those three years had a profound impact on my life. Mitchell keep up the great work of preserving racing memories! Thanks, Tim in northern TN
I was 17 years old when that race was aired on CBS. The drive that you and Logan have to save this race history is great and you do it very well. bring back the memories of my dad race at Seekonk speedway in the 70's and watching Nascar on Sunday. i always say to the end.
Mitchell you are getting these guys talking again to each other and remembering the past. When you get old all you can do is talk about the past. Thank you
I always wondered about the side rear window, didn't know about the Ford Thunderbird jubilee edition, which made it legal in NASCAR (homologation) The car belongs in a museum for everyone to see, and in a unrestored condition, it's only original once. Great video, thanks for making it.
Listening to that guy talk about Bobby Allison just about got me choked up.. It's cool to hear about the guys I used to look up to as a kid and find out they really were truly good people... Good stuff, Mitchell... Looking up at the stars is always a good time...
Pretty insane actually.. Cause we were running modified’s 2006-12 and we built my dads chassis out of a Lincoln Continental.. I know this chassis very well 😂.. Nothing very racy about it from factory.. But with some love..They are a awesome platform for dirt and pavement… So cool to see that thing in such amazing shape after all these years… I watched a lot of old school Nascar when i wasn’t wrenching on our own stuff in the day.. What a legend he is..
Said it before and I will say it again thank you both for the hard work and dedication to these videos. On a separate note, I have been subscribed to Good Chop (because of your channel) and I can say that it is worth every penny. Thanks again for everything I can't wait for the next couple of months.
hello from ottawa canada im 58 years old and remember those years like it was yesterday like what you and your gal are doing here . thank you .stay safe .
You’re doing probably the best history lesson anyone could possibly want for the time in hot rod and racing history that made our hobby what it is today. You’re doing the great lords work for race fans. Keep it up. Nobody is doing anything like this. It’s like forgotten weapons but for race cars.
It’s insane to me how these types of cars in their day were just kind of taken for granted, used, and forgotten about. Now they are cherished time capsules that can’t ever be duplicated or replaced, all due to memories and their association with a certain time and age.
I thank you so much for what you do. As a retired past and present nascar fan, your efforts are a great source of insight into the history of the sport I love. Thanks.
I love the way you and Logan cover this stuff! Thank you for covering this. I met Bobby Allison when I was working an autograph event in NC, and he was a wonderful person, He took the time with each fan, and the staff working the event. Great Memories.
These videos are so important to the history of NASCAR. The detail that you capture is incredible and the stories that the owners and drivers tell adds even more. Looking at a picture or video of these cars when they raced is already super cool, but to see them up close and personal today is what really connects the dots that these cars are real and that's really what they raced not too long ago
Holy shit! Another piece of history! I was watching that race that day with my father. It was snowing like heck that day we had been out cutting wood and dad said let's go see if we can catch the race. What an amazing time it was! I have Bobby Alison's and Donnie Alison's autograph that they personally signed for me. You guys are awesome. Thank you!
Bonus section was the best part. Come on! You give me hope Mitchel. Just stumbled on to your channel thanks to my RUclips algorithm. Your killin it with the history. I’m 50ish and completely appreciate the passion and work ethic you and you better half have. The respect you show to the men and women that came before you is a wonderful trait that you should never let fade. You got a new subscriber here! Looking forward to learning more about this country’s racing history with you!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Your talk at the end about people and them killing hotrods is spot on brother, i love old nascar and can't stand new nascar and like you say it's not about the cars it's the people. Dale Sr was the man because he was a man and showed it i met him once and the genuine aura of that man can't be faked he really cared about his fans, these drivers today i believe care it's just you can't walk up and shake their hand, have a conversation, bench race or just have a moment of knowing them anymore because it's all about cooperate needs and money now. That's why i love these videos they resonate of who these men are and were.
Bud Moore built a Mercury to run in 1980 and they did really well with it. They won the Firec racker 400 and one of the Talladega races if I remember correctly. When nascar mandated the smaller wheelbase cars in 81, the Merc sat behind their shop and a good friend of mine and me climbed into it. I always wondered what happened to that chassis. Bud would allow us young guys to come in and visit occasionally, and Greg was always great too. Mitchell, you want to sell more merch, then have that beautiful girlfriend model it for you as she is a joy to look at.
I heard and read that the automotive industry is second only to the aerospace industry in product development. This i believe. Cheers folks. Keep it going!
made it to the bonus content neat to see stuff like this you think man that's a pretty racecar then you see just how cobbled together they were back then and it makes you wonder how they even worked let alone stayed together
The telescope story was cool. As you say - it's about the people. Your videos not only inform; but for the real historical race fans they bring back memories & feelings from a different time. Please keep going and keep these memories and history alive. The 70's were when I became a lifelong race fan and my Grandfather (who bled Petty blue) got me addicted. Thank you for what you do!!
I was sitting on the back straight away in 1979 when this incidence occurred but could not tell as much about it as you can on TV. We was about 200 yards from the fight, it was a beautiful day in Daytona but came back through 4 inches of snow into Atlanta. I was also on the back straight away when Buddy Baker run the fastest race ever run the next year in the number 28 car. Great video thanks for the memories.
20:25 - amen, brotha. I love that we're going to get a Bud Moore history video coming up in the future too. This is the stuff I grew up on. I'm torn about how far to go on the car. It's such a piece of history I'd hate to touch it at all (and I'm usually a "restore it and make it nice again" guy). I guess I'd get it back to running and driving condition, fix that engine bay bar that's bent (might have to in order to get an engine in it) and give it a good cleaning up.
Bobby and Dave Marcis are good friends . You need to get hold Dave and listen to his stories also. Glad to call Dave a friend. Thanks Ed Berry Medford Wisconsin
I was only about 6 or 7 but I can remember some of the races that led up to nascar becoming a nationaly televised sporting event. If I remeber correctly it was only the 2 or 3 main races back then that got broadcasted nation wide. I do remember alot of cursing and fists shaking and also some big brawls breaking out throughout those early years on tv. I was to young to remember names.. but I think I did see that telecast. Thanks for remembering our heros
I vote to leave as much of the exterior and all as possible (not that it really matters, it's someone else's car), and restore the rest to an as raced condition, it is a race tool like he says, not a concours restoration from a bucket of rust, best condition for this car is a semi-restored survivor since it's in relatively good condition. "Good from far, and far from good" keep the history alive. Thanks for all of your guys work, and the guy who kept this car for years. Excellent video as usual. 28:10, I wish, I went back to school to fill my dream and the culture changed during that time, waste of time and life, have a bunch of skills I put too much effort into getting to get a job doing what I used to love but now don't really care about it even on a hobby level cause they didn't pay off, but glad to hear other people have had great experiences with people, keeps me from being 100% bitter about humanity, or the lack-there-of.
Yes we made to the bonus round! Another great video! I remember watching that race flag to flag! I grew up with a dad that built and wrenched on a asphalt short track car and always saw fights in the pits after a race. I couldn't believe they still did it in the professional ranks. Racing hard, tempers flare no matter who you are!
Mitchell,Logan,I absolutely loved that!!! I’m saying no to a restoration just take a look that is pure nascar history staring back at us all! Just build it up and keep it as it is! And definitely would love to see a video on the charger! Keep it up guys absolutely loving it! Keep living my dream for me!! Look forward to the next one 🤟🏻🏴
Great video! As far as keeping it the way it is or restoring is a tough decision. If the passenger side wasn't so deteriorated, I say leave it. Love these stories since I grew up in the 70's and remember seeing the '79 Daytona 500 live.
I've followed Nascar since the seventies, but in the past few years I've become extremally interested in the history and past. I follow a lot of late model racing from Georgia through the Carolinas from where it originated. I like the history that cover on your channel and usually makes me look deeper into the past, as it relates to your story. I feel with the resurgence of old short tracks coming back, due to North Wilkesboro Speedway. The bonus video was a great story. I have a few of my own as they relate the Big E.
Your outro is spot on!!! So many do not get it, thankfully that message of being about the people is still alive in those who care about the sport or any other facet of life. Thank you!!!!!
It’s great to see a young person interested in the history of the cars and PEOPLE! These folks were able to innovate. I am often inhibited at my job,so to see these videos gives me inspiration. Every video is fascinating!
Watched your bonus video with Greg Moore. Great video today, looking forward to your new ones. Thank you for the time and effort to preserve history and in touch with the actual racers, family, team members, etc. Today's NASCAR is so far removed from 30-40 yrs ago unfortunately.
Greg mentioned it was changed back to a short track car sometime after the '79 500. So damn cool. Love the stories behind the cars and the people, too. The cars have just as much to do with the story as the people do sometime, and seeing TJ's connection to this ride is special. He's the right guy to own the piece. Whatever he chooses to do with it, I'm sure he'll be making the right choice. He appreciates that car too much not to do it the way the car deserves.
Dude..i just brought Bud Moore Engineering decal off eBay yesterday. Perfect timing for this video! Call me crazy but id like to see this car running again. Killer video as usual.
I am truly grateful and amazing how someone knew to keep intact the 1979 Mercury stock car that Bobby Allison drove and I would repair what should be done and clear coat the car and of course put the suspension to get back to at least a roller and display for the general public can see it in person
Awesome job !! The racing history videos bring back a lot of great memories . I am one of those guys that watch every video to the very end . You are very correct its not just the cars its the people.
Hello and thank you for what you are doing with the history of NASCAR.. I absolutely love your NASCAR history videos. My fav so far is the Kenny Wallace video and the Mark Martin video as well.. I am up here in the Northeast (Maine to be exact) and suto racing up here is big. We have the Oxford 250 which is one of New Englands biggest short track races there is. But I love the history behind NASCAR and have learned a lot from all your videos on NASCAR!! Yes I did make it to the bonus video also LOL... Keep up the great work your dong for this sport for the young and us old timers that grew up watching drives like Bobby, Dale, Awesome Bill from Dawsonville and many more that raced back in the days!!! I love hear the stories these drivers have of the past and how they go started in races. Thank you again and thank you to you both for bring us these video's..
Great video, I wish I could see and smell some of this history you bring to us! You've captured cars and stories that people have wondered about for years, and with you're love for NASCAR at your age is awesome.
They knocked the doors in and replaced sheet metal often. In the 79 500 that driver side door was caved in and the car was run in 1980 as well. It has been changed around a lot externally
Great Story about Bobby Allison.. Another Story as told by Dale Ernhardt JR .. Is how as a kid or and teenager.. He went to the Races with Kenny Schrader. Kenny Schrader was like a Father to Dale JR..
I have met Bobby and his wife. Used to go to Daytona twice a year for the 500 and Firecracker 400 in July. My buddy and I were into RC cars during this time and used to take our cars to Whippoorwill speedway outside Orlando when the racing were over. My friend’s car was a Bobby Allison Raybestos Buick. During our stay in Daytona we would run our cars around the hotel parking lot. We we’re staying on the beach at the Dolphin Beach Club. In the parking lot we noticed Bobby walking to his hotel room. So then we were trying to decide whether to bug him or not and eventually said screw it and took my buddy’s car to his room door. Scared, we knocked anyway. Bobby’s wife answered the door and you could get the sense that she was unsure about us. Being from Indy and huge Indy Car fans my buddy wanted to ask Bobby about running in the Indy 500. That got Bobby’s interest and came to the door and had a pleasant conversation with us and signed my buddy’s RC car. I don’t recall the particulars about the conversation. I just remember meeting Nascar history that day.
You guys keep doing what your doing, I’ve been saying it for a long time now and yes I watched the extra part at the end. I’m a 62 years old Race Car Fabricator with a shop at Sonoma Raceway so if your ever come out to watch the road race here I’ll show you guys around because I do all the fab work for the track as well.
Mitchell you and Logan nailed the shit out of this one. Such an awesome video of a time when aero didn't factor in nearly as much as horsepower and handling did. He should keep that car just as it is.
Young man, I’m so happy that you do what you do and that you’re so passionate about it. The questions you ask the contributors to your videos and all of the things you appreciate about every detail of the history is amazing. From the car’s dents to the paint marks on the floors of previous shops. I thinks it’s just a matter of time before Motor Trend or Netflix snatches you up. I hope they do. We’ll be watching!
I for one and very happy you guys do these videos. Its refreshing to know the NASCAR and racing in general will not be forgotten or lost. I also would like to say. He should leave the car the way it is. Don't do a full restoration. That is true NASCAR history. Hearing stories from the old timers is amazing. I started following you when you did the Mark Martin Video/Interview. I have since went back and watched 90% of all your videos. Very cool channel. Keep up the amazing work.
As a fan of the vintage nascar stuff, I love what you guys do. I'm enjoying the candy that came with my new Lake Speed T-shirt as I watch this episode. Keep doing what you do and I will keep watching.
Bud Moore was a great racer, but I remember him as an American war hero, don't make them like that anymore. Another great video, thanks for keeping the old nascar days alive, Your channel is going to blow up with what you are doing, great work!
my first nascar race was darlington in 74. camped in the infield for 25 years straight. remember watching a yellow and white race hills farm car driving up at the wall every lap. Harry Gant fan forever. you need talk to wayne and dewayne, the skoal merch trailer owners for harry. great people. still watch nascar every weekend. love the history. thanks so much. Ron T.
Another great informative video. I still remember watching that race on TV, because back then NASCAR wasn't on every weekend. Cale was my favorite driver back in the day, so thank you again for all that you do!!
great video for sure. I remember that car for sure because i was in that race shop everyday after work. Greg and i were roommates in 1979.. i missed seeing this car when Tim brought it to spartanburg at Applesbys, because we had left for the beach that day. but i remember that car and how they built them, reskinned them etc. great piece of history. Thanks tim for preserving it and Thanks mitchell for doing this video. You did great on the radio show this morning. Larry
Not even a huge NASCAR fan overall but I absolutely love this channel and all of the documenting you do on amazing story after story. Just an excellent and super informative channel and so glad I found it!!!
Great video and the story at the end, I was big into dirt late models and there are still a lot of olds guys around me that would to tell stories, keep up the good work
Sometimes I just can’t believe some of this stuff still exists. I mean…you always hope it does…but to actually see it up close is absolutely incredible. Tim Walker is the man!

No please don't restore the paint, It's only original one time. It amazes me how you find these cars. Keep doing what your doing.
I scrolled down to type the same thing. You can paint and re-paint a car over and over, but it's only original once.
I agree!
@@Stapleton42
Exactly, it isn't so far gone that it needs to be repainted in order to cover new panels or what needed to be skinned. Its a race car, not a sponsor/PR/show "race car". I'm not a fan of "keep it all original" nor of fauxtina BUT these cars had frames long before they became tube chases cars. Heck, to many enthusiasts nowadays a car with a separate standalone frame is just as much of an eye-opening wonderment for them as the first time they felt big-cube NA torque in a hi-perf car.
Yep, I watched through to the end, the 'bonus" that you asked to mention.
"Wisconsin Mafia" info/history would be 👍🏼🏁😎
Good on ya, both of y'all!!
This is exactly like the arguments for and against plastic surgery. Some people are afraid of time and age, but it comes to all of us and it's completely unavoidable. As @anthonyplanas3606 said, it's only original once, and people shouldn't be afraid of what they see when they see what 45 years does to a car. It's too cool to see how basic the race hardware was back in the day compared to the almost limitless budgets of today. Leaving it exactly as it is will preserve that for all to see. Either way, it's a very cool piece of history.
Leave it be!
RIP to one of the greatest men in Ford's racing history. The great Bud Moore. ❤
I think Bud Moore racing was one of the classiest race teams in the business. I was in Daytona to watch the 1983 Firecracker 400 where Bobby Allison won the race in the Diegard Gatorade Buick. But ealier that morning, my brother-in-law and I stopped at the Howard Johnson's for breakfast. Marty Robbins came in and first sat in the booth behind us. Then shortly, Bud Moore and some of the race team came in and invited Marty Robbins to join them in a backroom. This was the year Dale Earnhardt drove the Wrangler Ford for Bud Moore.
Bobby Allison holds a special place in my heart. Years ago, 1991, I was 18 and going through chemo. I had met Bobby before, but he was appearing at a local establishment and signing autographs the owner of the establishment her significant other were friends of mine and they were asking how things were progressing with my health. I didn't know it, but Bobby heard the conversation. I was getting ready to go home and he stopped me and asked what was going on. I told him and he gave me words of encouragement and wished me all the best with my health. I never forgot that nor will I. It met so much to me that he took the time to encourage me during that difficult time. That is the gentleman Bobby is.
Bobby is really a great guy. It must have helped because that was over 30 years ago now!
@@Stapleton42 It helped me a lot and to this day it means a lot. I am now 50 with a 16 year old son, who I am thankful for and is my world. I enjoy your videos and I watch them from start to finish. The mid 70's through late 80's are my favorite time period in local and NASCAR racing. As diehard of a fan I am, I still learn a lot from your videos. It is obvious your care and love of the sport. It shows in each and everyone.
Bud Moore is the reason I ran the #15 my entire racing career. Saw Bobby win in Ontario, Ca. in 1978 driving that car.
Bud Moore, Bobby Allison two Great Americans.
I too met Bobby Allison In Nashville during an autograph session at Frank Davis Buick, the day of the Nashville 420 in 1984. Bobby, and his PR person, Tom Roberts, were so accomodating to me. Tom Roberts invited me and my wife to be his guests in the Allison pits for that nights race. It was a thrill for me to be a part of that night.
I am glad people are collecting and perserving the cars from the earlier history of NASCAR. I don't feel it is the same sport as it was during the 70s, 80, and 90s.
Awesome! TR is a cool dude
TR invited me to go with him to Huntsville the day after the Nashville race to watch Bobby Allison run a new Buick V6 in a stock car race. If understood correctly, Davey built the car. It was a Buick Century #22 painted just like Bobby's white with red numbers and lettering Buick Regal cup car. One of the coolest experiences i've had.
When I went to the autograph session on Saturday before the cup race, I took a 1/24 scale Monogram model of Bobby's 1983 national champion cup car car. My plan was to get Bobby to autograph the car. I got there before Bobby arrived and met TR beforehand. I show TR the model and aksed if Bobby would sign it. He told me Bobby would. But when it cam my turn to get Bobby's autograph, I told Bobby it was a gift to him. He examined it as though he'd never seen one before. He made a comment that was flattering but certainly funny; he looked at TR and said something like"TR, this looks better than one that Gary Nelson builds. Of course that got a chuckle from everyone standing around.
The days of Music City 420's are long gone... never to return. I lived 20 miles from the track and remember, after the races, they would open the gates to the infield and you could walk in with a very good chance of meeting many of the drivers. Even though they were ready to get showered and go home, they took the time to talk to you and sign autographs. Meeting Cale Yarborough was a dream come true for me as a kid! It seemed drivers were just "Good Ole Boys" back then... who have evolved into "NASCAR Superstars" today.
I remember those days as well. It was cool as a young man to be among good race drivers. One specific race I remember is listening to AJ Foyt sitting on the pit wall talking about his favorite things in life; racing, fighting and f..king, in that order.
Hey Mitch I just wanted you to know that I was the viewer a while back that had mentioned that my father and Gregg were really good friends back in the late 70’s and early 80’s and I had asked if you had been down to the old shop before. I also worked for James Hylton and could probably get you hooked up with the guy that basically grew up in James shop and ended up being his right hand man for building and maintaining the cars for James from the time he was just a little boy all the way till the last race in Talladega before his tragedy on the way home. He even still goes with Brad Smith who has drove the 48 Arca car for several years and still does even after James passed away. He could give you some amazing stories from back in the golden years of Nascar as well as some in the past 20 years. If you talk to Gregg just ask him if he remembers Mike and Mitzi Pettit. I’m Randy their son.
Another great video. Us old guys remember the Golden Age of NASCAR in the 50s, 60s and 70s before all the big money came into the sport.
Yep, the money really started coming in around the late 1980's and Nascar began its slow downward spiral to where it is now.
I used to work at SRI Performance and we kept this car in our warehouse briefly. I was fortunate enough to work with one of the guys who built this car and he also claimed that there was no doubt in his mind that this car is the car they used in the 79 Daytona 500. Awesome barn find! Hopefully it can be restored while also keeping it as original as possible
I was fortunate enough to meet Bobby Allison, Davey Allison, Alan Kulwicki, Kyle Petty, and Ken Schrader at the Slinger Nationals in 1988, which was a week before Bobby's Pocono wreck. Pictures with all and autographs all. Fantastic people. Thank you for keeping the history alive. You guys rock!
The harder you work, the luckier you get. These videos are one heck of a nostalgia ride as well as historical value. Cudos to you both.
i wouldn't change that paint. That is an amazing race-car and is a historic .
Saw my first race with my dad in 1966. I was 7. Loved this video.
Of course we made it to the Bonus section! And of course you found one of the cars that launched NASCAR into Nationwide television viewership! Mitchell and Logan, we have never met but we feel like you guys are family on the other side of the country! Thank you for doing this, we will always share and help promote your work! Your channel is like the car culture you were just talking about, both of you are showing so many how its supposed to be in a really odd time, thank you for reaching out to all of us. Jennifer Spencer and I really enjoy and appreciate how you make us feel like family each week. I see your #3 wrangler good wrench hand drawn on Stapleton42 post card you drew for Spencer each morning on the fridge while getting lunches ready and wonder what adventure your on today before I go to work! Keep the adventures going for us all! Love from The Oregon Houlihan’s!!
You guys are awesome thank you so much!
I appreciate how you describe racing isn't just about cars, it's about people. Reading about our local legends like Dick Trickle, you see how much the person means to so many, how they touched lives, and then they went racing too. When I meet my hero, Dick was shorter then me. But he's still larger then life to me at the same time.
I had looked at this before but don't think I commented on it. This is another awesome show. Keep it up 💪👍
Appreciate it!
I would love to see a video on the charger daytona. Daytonas and superbirds are my unobtainable dream cars.
I too want to see a video of the Daytona recreation car my brother built from scratch, basically. They started with a beat up green 1969 Charger with the sail panels/C pillars. They used the car just to build a jig and a few parts of the car. It was so rusted out, the only thing they used is the a Pillars.
I grew up in Greenville, SC and got involved in the racing scene at Greenville-Pickens Speedway in 1970 working on Larry Gilstrap’s #29 Ford Fairlane driven by Johnny Allen. Those three years had a profound impact on my life. Mitchell keep up the great work of preserving racing memories! Thanks, Tim in northern TN
Thanks man we will!
I was 17 years old when that race was aired on CBS. The drive that you and Logan have to save this race history is great and you do it very well. bring back the memories of my dad race at Seekonk speedway in the 70's and watching Nascar on Sunday. i always say to the end.
Thank you David!
Only thing I can say. They are only original, ONCE!
Amen Matt
Yea. And the cars are pretty neet too!
Mitchell you are getting these guys talking again to each other and remembering the past. When you get old all you can do is talk about the past. Thank you
thank you Dennis!
I always wondered about the side rear window, didn't know about the Ford Thunderbird jubilee edition, which made it legal in NASCAR (homologation) The car belongs in a museum for everyone to see, and in a unrestored condition, it's only original once. Great video, thanks for making it.
Listening to that guy talk about Bobby Allison just about got me choked up..
It's cool to hear about the guys I used to look up to as a kid and find out they really were truly good people...
Good stuff, Mitchell...
Looking up at the stars is always a good time...
thanks man. Bobby is a role model and true American hero
Pretty insane actually..
Cause we were running modified’s 2006-12 and we built my dads chassis out of a Lincoln Continental..
I know this chassis very well 😂..
Nothing very racy about it from factory..
But with some love..They are a awesome platform for dirt and pavement…
So cool to see that thing in such amazing shape after all these years…
I watched a lot of old school Nascar when i wasn’t wrenching on our own stuff in the day..
What a legend he is..
Thanks man!
That Greg Moore telescope story is awesome, can't wait to see whats next bud!
Thanks man!
Said it before and I will say it again thank you both for the hard work and dedication to these videos. On a separate note, I have been subscribed to Good Chop (because of your channel) and I can say that it is worth every penny. Thanks again for everything I can't wait for the next couple of months.
thanks man!! We love GoodChop!
hello from ottawa canada im 58 years old and remember those years like it was yesterday like what you and your gal are doing here . thank you .stay safe .
Im watching this from norway🇳🇴 i love this channel 😎👍🏻
Ive always wanted one of these thunderbirds.
You’re doing probably the best history lesson anyone could possibly want for the time in hot rod and racing history that made our hobby what it is today. You’re doing the great lords work for race fans. Keep it up. Nobody is doing anything like this. It’s like forgotten weapons but for race cars.
It’s insane to me how these types of cars in their day were just kind of taken for granted, used, and forgotten about. Now they are cherished time capsules that can’t ever be duplicated or replaced, all due to memories and their association with a certain time and age.
For a little under 700k you can own the Allison house and property in Hueytown AL. It went up for sale 14 days ago by the sister of Davey.
I thank you so much for what you do. As a retired past and present nascar fan, your efforts are a great source of insight into the history of the sport I love. Thanks.
Thank you Robert!
I always watch the adds and vids to the end 🙂
you da man!
@@Stapleton42 your the man getting such inside Nascar knowledge for history 🙂
There's a Hodgdon chassis just like that one sitting at the train museum in Spencer NC. It's inside the big building with the airplane
You can't change the paint...! Find a vintage engine and get it put back together...! Y'all never cease to amaze me...! Keep up your awesomeness...!
I love the way you and Logan cover this stuff! Thank you for covering this.
I met Bobby Allison when I was working an autograph event in NC, and he was a wonderful person, He took the time with each fan, and the staff working the event.
Great Memories.
That's awesome!
i allways watch to the end, Thank You!
These videos are so important to the history of NASCAR. The detail that you capture is incredible and the stories that the owners and drivers tell adds even more. Looking at a picture or video of these cars when they raced is already super cool, but to see them up close and personal today is what really connects the dots that these cars are real and that's really what they raced not too long ago
Holy shit! Another piece of history! I was watching that race that day with my father. It was snowing like heck that day we had been out cutting wood and dad said let's go see if we can catch the race. What an amazing time it was! I have Bobby Alison's and Donnie Alison's autograph that they personally signed for me. You guys are awesome. Thank you!
Thank you Dale!
Bonus section was the best part. Come on!
You give me hope Mitchel. Just stumbled on to your channel thanks to my RUclips algorithm. Your killin it with the history. I’m 50ish and completely appreciate the passion and work ethic you and you better half have. The respect you show to the men and women that came before you is a wonderful trait that you should never let fade. You got a new subscriber here! Looking forward to learning more about this country’s racing history with you!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video!
I was two when this race happened, probably watched it tho. Wide world of sports! 79 Daytona 500 on ABC
Your talk at the end about people and them killing hotrods is spot on brother, i love old nascar and can't stand new nascar and like you say it's not about the cars it's the people. Dale Sr was the man because he was a man and showed it i met him once and the genuine aura of that man can't be faked he really cared about his fans, these drivers today i believe care it's just you can't walk up and shake their hand, have a conversation, bench race or just have a moment of knowing them anymore because it's all about cooperate needs and money now. That's why i love these videos they resonate of who these men are and were.
Thanks man. Some of the new ones are genuine dudes. Joey Logano is one of them
Thanks again for another great video Stapletons!
Yes I made it to the bonus clip. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do. I grew up during the best years of NASCAR (70’s and 80’s)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Keep doing what your doing. I was a fan back then, and these guys were my heroes. Thanks and cheers from Va. wood brothers and MM fan here.
Much appreciated!
Bud Moore built a Mercury to run in 1980 and they did really well with it. They won the Firec racker 400 and one of the Talladega races if I remember correctly. When nascar mandated the smaller wheelbase cars in 81, the Merc sat behind their shop and a good friend of mine and me climbed into it. I always wondered what happened to that chassis. Bud would allow us young guys to come in and visit occasionally, and Greg was always great too. Mitchell, you want to sell more merch, then have that beautiful girlfriend model it for you as she is a joy to look at.
thanks man what an experience that must have been. She is always doing something else when I need to film these outro clips!
I heard and read that the automotive industry is second only to the aerospace industry in product development. This i believe. Cheers folks. Keep it going!
Loved it. 15 is my favorite number, and the 1978 T-Bird was my very first new car. Thank You for the trip back down memory lane.
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it!
made it to the bonus content neat to see stuff like this you think man that's a pretty racecar then you see just how cobbled together they were back then and it makes you wonder how they even worked let alone stayed together
Ken Squire's call from that day will stand the test of time as some of the greatest sportscasting ever done.
So true!
Well said sir
The telescope story was cool. As you say - it's about the people. Your videos not only inform; but for the real historical race fans they bring back memories & feelings from a different time. Please keep going and keep these memories and history alive. The 70's were when I became a lifelong race fan and my Grandfather (who bled Petty blue) got me addicted. Thank you for what you do!!
Thanks man we appreciate you and won’t be stopping anytime soon!
I wanna know if the Hoss Ellington car from that race is still in existance.
I heard it was later sold and totaled by Janet Guthrie but I’m not sure
Awesome video. Like Awesome awesome. Can't wait for the next one
I was sitting on the back straight away in 1979 when this incidence occurred but could not tell as much about it as you can on TV. We was about 200 yards from the fight, it was a beautiful day in Daytona but came back through 4 inches of snow into Atlanta. I was also on the back straight away when Buddy Baker run the fastest race ever run the next year in the number 28 car. Great video thanks for the memories.
Great bonus!
20:25 - amen, brotha. I love that we're going to get a Bud Moore history video coming up in the future too. This is the stuff I grew up on.
I'm torn about how far to go on the car. It's such a piece of history I'd hate to touch it at all (and I'm usually a "restore it and make it nice again" guy). I guess I'd get it back to running and driving condition, fix that engine bay bar that's bent (might have to in order to get an engine in it) and give it a good cleaning up.
No cleaning ! no straightening!, as raced ! untouched!
Bobby and Dave Marcis are good friends . You need to get hold Dave and listen to his stories also. Glad to call Dave a friend. Thanks Ed Berry Medford Wisconsin
Dave is one of the connections Tim made for us already! I need to call him soon here
I was only about 6 or 7 but I can remember some of the races that led up to nascar becoming a nationaly televised sporting event. If I remeber correctly it was only the 2 or 3 main races back then that got broadcasted nation wide. I do remember alot of cursing and fists shaking and also some big brawls breaking out throughout those early years on tv. I was to young to remember names.. but I think I did see that telecast.
Thanks for remembering our heros
Once there was a time before Saturday morning cartoons ever existed. A time when children got punished for touching a tv set.
I vote to leave as much of the exterior and all as possible (not that it really matters, it's someone else's car), and restore the rest to an as raced condition, it is a race tool like he says, not a concours restoration from a bucket of rust, best condition for this car is a semi-restored survivor since it's in relatively good condition. "Good from far, and far from good" keep the history alive. Thanks for all of your guys work, and the guy who kept this car for years. Excellent video as usual.
28:10, I wish, I went back to school to fill my dream and the culture changed during that time, waste of time and life, have a bunch of skills I put too much effort into getting to get a job doing what I used to love but now don't really care about it even on a hobby level cause they didn't pay off, but glad to hear other people have had great experiences with people, keeps me from being 100% bitter about humanity, or the lack-there-of.
Yes we made to the bonus round! Another great video! I remember watching that race flag to flag! I grew up with a dad that built and wrenched on a asphalt short track car and always saw fights in the pits after a race. I couldn't believe they still did it in the professional ranks. Racing hard, tempers flare no matter who you are!
i stopped at Bud Moores shop yesterday ....i wish it had been saved
Mitchell,Logan,I absolutely loved that!!! I’m saying no to a restoration just take a look that is pure nascar history staring back at us all! Just build it up and keep it as it is! And definitely would love to see a video on the charger! Keep it up guys absolutely loving it! Keep living my dream for me!! Look forward to the next one 🤟🏻🏴
Great video! As far as keeping it the way it is or restoring is a tough decision. If the passenger side wasn't so deteriorated, I say leave it. Love these stories since I grew up in the 70's and remember seeing the '79 Daytona 500 live.
I've followed Nascar since the seventies, but in the past few years I've become extremally interested in the history and past. I follow a lot of late model racing from Georgia through the Carolinas from where it originated. I like the history that cover on your channel and usually makes me look deeper into the past, as it relates to your story. I feel with the resurgence of old short tracks coming back, due to North Wilkesboro Speedway. The bonus video was a great story. I have a few of my own as they relate the Big E.
Thank you Gary!
Your outro is spot on!!! So many do not get it, thankfully that message of being about the people is still alive in those who care about the sport or any other facet of life. Thank you!!!!!
Thanks man we appreciate you!
Well done Mitchell & Girlfriend!! Loving these great stories you put together. Much gratitude from Australia!!
Thanks for the video Mitchell and Logan. Learned a lot about the Thunderbird today.
From 1978 thru 1979 season the Bud Moore T Birds were fast and with Bobby Allison at the wheel racked up quite a few wins!
It’s great to see a young person interested in the history of the cars and PEOPLE!
These folks were able to innovate.
I am often inhibited at my job,so to see these videos gives me inspiration.
Every video is fascinating!
I'm not even a big Nascar fan but these videos of yours are great. This is good stuff dude, thanks!
Watched your bonus video with Greg Moore. Great video today, looking forward to your new ones. Thank you for the time and effort to preserve history and in touch with the actual racers, family, team members, etc. Today's NASCAR is so far removed from 30-40 yrs ago unfortunately.
Thanks man we appreciate you
1977 Ford Thunderbird Generation 2 NASCAR Winston Cup Series Thanks For Uploading
Mitchell, this video is awesome👍 Tim is a friend of mine and it’s great you got together with him, he is rich in Bobby Allison history!
Greg mentioned it was changed back to a short track car sometime after the '79 500. So damn cool. Love the stories behind the cars and the people, too. The cars have just as much to do with the story as the people do sometime, and seeing TJ's connection to this ride is special. He's the right guy to own the piece. Whatever he chooses to do with it, I'm sure he'll be making the right choice. He appreciates that car too much not to do it the way the car deserves.
Dude..i just brought Bud Moore Engineering decal off eBay yesterday.
Perfect timing for this video!
Call me crazy but id like to see this car running again.
Killer video as usual.
Thanks man!!
I am truly grateful and amazing how someone knew to keep intact the 1979 Mercury stock car that Bobby Allison drove and I would repair what should be done and clear coat the car and of course put the suspension to get back to at least a roller and display for the general public can see it in person
Awesome job !! The racing history videos bring back a lot of great memories . I am one of those guys that watch every video to the very end . You are very correct its not just the cars its the people.
Hello and thank you for what you are doing with the history of NASCAR.. I absolutely love your NASCAR history videos. My fav so far is the Kenny Wallace video and the Mark Martin video as well.. I am up here in the Northeast (Maine to be exact) and suto racing up here is big. We have the Oxford 250 which is one of New Englands biggest short track races there is. But I love the history behind NASCAR and have learned a lot from all your videos on NASCAR!! Yes I did make it to the bonus video also LOL... Keep up the great work your dong for this sport for the young and us old timers that grew up watching drives like Bobby, Dale, Awesome Bill from Dawsonville and many more that raced back in the days!!! I love hear the stories these drivers have of the past and how they go started in races. Thank you again and thank you to you both for bring us these video's..
Thanks man! People dont realize how big Busch North was up there!
Great video, I wish I could see and smell some of this history you bring to us! You've captured cars and stories that people have wondered about for years, and with you're love for NASCAR at your age is awesome.
Thank you very much!
Wow, what a piece of history!! Well done! And I made it to the bonus content. I watch them all to the end. 👍
In the picture that you refrenced the 3 bar windsheild and head rest mount it looks like the door seams where not visible??
They knocked the doors in and replaced sheet metal often. In the 79 500 that driver side door was caved in and the car was run in 1980 as well. It has been changed around a lot externally
@@Stapleton42 just another cool feature that they put the gaps back into the door
Great Story about Bobby Allison.. Another Story as told by Dale Ernhardt JR .. Is how as a kid or and teenager.. He went to the Races with Kenny Schrader. Kenny Schrader was like a Father to Dale JR..
I have met Bobby and his wife.
Used to go to Daytona twice a year for the 500 and Firecracker 400 in July.
My buddy and I were into RC cars during this time and used to take our cars to Whippoorwill speedway outside Orlando when the racing were over.
My friend’s car was a Bobby Allison Raybestos Buick.
During our stay in Daytona we would run our cars around the hotel parking lot.
We we’re staying on the beach at the Dolphin Beach Club. In the parking lot we noticed Bobby walking to his hotel room.
So then we were trying to decide whether to bug him or not and eventually said screw it and took my buddy’s car to his room door.
Scared, we knocked anyway. Bobby’s wife answered the door and you could get the sense that she was unsure about us.
Being from Indy and huge Indy Car fans my buddy wanted to ask Bobby about running in the Indy 500. That got Bobby’s interest and came to the door and had a pleasant conversation with us and signed my buddy’s RC car.
I don’t recall the particulars about the conversation. I just remember meeting Nascar history that day.
Thank you for more Bobby Allison history. Also a good chop customer. Fantastic meat!
Awesome!!
You guys keep doing what your doing, I’ve been saying it for a long time now and yes I watched the extra part at the end. I’m a 62 years old Race Car Fabricator with a shop at Sonoma Raceway so if your ever come out to watch the road race here I’ll show you guys around because I do all the fab work for the track as well.
Another great video! Thanks for all your efforts!
My pleasure!
Mitchell you and Logan nailed the shit out of this one. Such an awesome video of a time when aero didn't factor in nearly as much as horsepower and handling did. He should keep that car just as it is.
Young man, I’m so happy that you do what you do and that you’re so passionate about it. The questions you ask the contributors to your videos and all of the things you appreciate about every detail of the history is amazing. From the car’s dents to the paint marks on the floors of previous shops. I thinks it’s just a matter of time before Motor Trend or Netflix snatches you up. I hope they do. We’ll be watching!
Thanks man. I don’t think they could afford to pull me off of my own platform and get me to relinquish ownership of my material but they can try 😂
I for one and very happy you guys do these videos. Its refreshing to know the NASCAR and racing in general will not be forgotten or lost. I also would like to say. He should leave the car the way it is. Don't do a full restoration. That is true NASCAR history. Hearing stories from the old timers is amazing. I started following you when you did the Mark Martin Video/Interview. I have since went back and watched 90% of all your videos. Very cool channel. Keep up the amazing work.
As a fan of the vintage nascar stuff, I love what you guys do. I'm enjoying the candy that came with my new Lake Speed T-shirt as I watch this episode. Keep doing what you do and I will keep watching.
Thank you steven!
Bud Moore was a great racer, but I remember him as an American war hero, don't make them like that anymore. Another great video, thanks for keeping the old nascar days alive, Your channel is going to blow up with what you are doing, great work!
Made it to the bonus segment. You are doing a great job networking with everyone and getting mire content. Everyone seems so nice and cool.
my first nascar race was darlington in 74. camped in the infield for 25 years straight. remember watching a yellow and white race hills farm car driving up at the wall every lap. Harry Gant fan forever. you need talk to wayne and dewayne, the skoal merch trailer owners for harry. great people. still watch nascar every weekend. love the history. thanks so much. Ron T.
A video with Red Farmer would be good one, a lot could be learned from a man who 90 and still racing
Another great informative video. I still remember watching that race on TV, because back then NASCAR wasn't on every weekend. Cale was my favorite driver back in the day, so thank you again for all that you do!!
Thank you Todd!
great video for sure. I remember that car for sure because i was in that race shop everyday after work. Greg and i were roommates in 1979.. i missed seeing this car when Tim brought it to spartanburg at Applesbys, because we had left for the beach that day. but i remember that car and how they built them, reskinned them etc. great piece of history. Thanks tim for preserving it and Thanks mitchell for doing this video. You did great on the radio show this morning. Larry
Thank you Larry I’m looking forward to doing some Spartanburg history with you guys!
i do too you and Logan are great people with great knowledge in cars and history@@Stapleton42
Not even a huge NASCAR fan overall but I absolutely love this channel and all of the documenting you do on amazing story after story. Just an excellent and super informative channel and so glad I found it!!!
Thanks man we’re glad you found us!!
Great video and the story at the end, I was big into dirt late models and there are still a lot of olds guys around me that would to tell stories, keep up the good work
Glad you enjoyed it!
