Yeah it's odd how they do it mines correct except for the sunroof & spoiler

Chris, I won't step on you and buy it out from under you. But I was considering trying to get an Intimidator edition also. So far I only have the Dale Jr. But it would be kinda cool (if possible) to get one of each. 2002 & 2004 Dale Sr, 2003 Jeff Gordon, 2004 Dale Jr, and 2005 Tony Stewart.

Does anyone here have all 5 of them? Do all 5 exist?


Mike, on the Dale Jr models, the spoiler is actually the pace car spoiler. It's got the lenses for the strobe lights. Just painted over.

Taz, I'm kinda low on funds, if you want it then get it I already have the 04 Sr monte, but I wouldn's mind getting the 04 Jr monte.....

I still have the 04 and 02 Sr's I bought a few months ago......

Super cool! I think some sort of personalized symbol in the car would be great for everyone. I can't figure out what I want to put in mine. I'll find the perfect Hot Wheels one day :p

I managed to find a 2002 Dale Sr street version. So I'm still looking for an 03 Jeff Gordon, 04 Intimidator, and an 05 Tony Stewart (if it exists). I didn't get a great deal like Justin did though. Tough to find a great deal like he did.

Thanks for putting up the picture. I was having a hard time with it. The CarFax about made the deal not happen.

Great score!
This is the best score I've made since I bought the 02 Dale Sr (the real car) for $500. lol.

Seriously... Have you considered turning around and selling it?
I have thought about selling it. I really want an 02, but I didn't want to pay more than $50 for one. One guy had an 02 for $150!!! You have got to be kidding me. There is a local NASCAR Memorabilia shop that I am going to go browse on Tuesday and see what he has. I will post up my findings in there.
