Winston Cup Museum's Final Days: Huge NASCAR Collection Headed to Auction (A Man and His Dream)

[@bobbylabonte8897]

True story about the car that I did drive for Gibbs ":back in the day", and also at Goodwood:) Thanks for sharing this Story, Will I'm sorry the museum is coming to a end, we really appreciate you and your passion to have kept the museum around for as long as you did.

@@Stapleton42 What would it take to keep this Museum going? It's a true shame that all of this NASCAR History will be auctioned off, it needs to be under one roof for all to see. Can we find a way to sponsor this current location, or can we find a new home in Las Vegas, or at Petersen in California? Something MUST be done to keep this collection together as one! Please ask around, I'm here to help in any way!!!

[@hmcdude1027]

Bobby, I enjoyed watching you and your brother at Atlanta every year. You and I (along with 6 others) raced Atlanta in simulators at a mall in Douglasville. You were in the car next to me, I won that day. LOL! Thanks for coming out that day and talking to us as well. It was an honor to be part of that.

Total shame the museum has to close. NASCAR the way I remember is truly dead.

[@blueline308]

Me and the people like me are not the problem in regard to why Nascar sucks today. It is woke corporations and Nascar itself turning it's back on the fans that made it great. Nascar could close down tomorrow and I wouldn't bat an eye. RIP Nascar.@@Stapleton42

Seeing this really hurts. So much history. It really needs to be saved somehow.

[@goneracin9]

I'm really not sure who ITG even is but I saw an article online and they sound like really nasty people. Petty to boot. In my opinion, of course. Their making a big stink is drawing WAY more negative attention than a single KZbin video would bring.

[@NeedsLessWedge]

@@grplrhashi oddly enough the fed restrictions on tobacco companies not being able to sponsor the series and cups switch to Nextel and then the awful chase.. Dale wouldn't have done it this way I don't think. All part of the first chapters of the end of the 'good ole days' Museums and monuments are some of the only things left to tell the tale, until they are torn down or closed/sold out.

[@jeffbetts8660]

I am 69 years old, my 43-year-old son got me watching KZbin because it was free. All I had to do was watch commercials which I don’t mind. I can’t afford much because I’ve been retired for two years but I love what you’re doing and I am really enjoying it, and look forward to making more comments in the future. I’m a little nervous about being on this type of thing I don’t know what you call it social media, but I really like what you’re doing. I guess that’s about it for now.

[@andyanglin390]

What's the saddest thing is RJR ( WINSTON ) was the company and people who put Nascar on the map. They were so dedicated to Nascar and when the government got involved with no tobacco Co. being able to advertise on TV anymore RJR had to get out. Winston used to pass out cartons of cigarettes for free to anyone over 18. Boy those were the good old days of Earnhardt, Elliott, Jarrett and others. You would have the time of your life. I know because I've been to most South Eastern tracks. Although I would be remiss if I didn't mention the untimely death of RJR p.r. man along with 8 others in a boating accident while on a duck hunting trip. It was all downhill after that. Watching your video allowed me to reminisce the good old days once again. Sad ending to Nascar once again. It's not the sport I grew to love anymore. No ingenuity anymore, just cookie cutter cars all running around together. Not my cup of tea Nascar. Oh yeah I want to mention that I would spend at least $300.00 per race. Thanks for the great video and a very special thanks to Will for preserving such history and sharing his stories. I wish we could do something to help him save the museum. Your doing your best to help him thanks.

[@Stapleton42]

Thanks man!!

The infield. Cartons of cigs, bbqs blazing everywhere, ride your bike and wherever you stopped, you immediately became friends with the people around you.

So @12:35 the Action diecast model that you see, My dad hand carved the master patterns out of wood for Action, he made all the Winston Cup NASCARs master patterns for them. Most of the other diecast complies were making the NASCAR's wrong by making them the same on both sides.. when my dad had made them all (as my dad would say cattywampus)Twisted Sister as you would say. In fact, he did all the Action Champ cars as well, except the Andretti Swift that I had made! My dad made all the Lancer slot cars' bodies from the 60s that some of you may be old enough to remember! Lloyd Asbury of A/W Modelcraft was his last co. now 92 and retired south of the border! I have lots of toys!

Well this was really interesting and at the same time very sad to watch. NASCAR seemed to start sliding after RJR left in 2003. Very sad to see this museum sold at auction--so many stories and pieces of history that will be lost when it is no longer together. Thanks for sharing!

That is just a damn shame. What Will has is history that we can never get back. I don't like NASCAR much today, but I worshiped the NASCAR of old. Loved the high wing Plymouths, and the Ford Torino's, and always liked the 92 T-bird. Loved Bill Elliot and Mark Martin. If Will leaves, then all I had growing up will be gone for the future generations. Just a damn shame.

I am so thrilled you took the time to produce this video. I am so happy you had such a casual, detailed, honest, and heartfelt, interview with such a true icon of our old Winston Cup NASCAR. It was so sad and wrenched my heart when a question was asked, if certain cars are going to auction, and the answer drew out such a gut wrenching "yes" from our friend. It hurt like Hell to be told the truth. Now we must help this young man understand how much we love him for his life's work of passion. I grew up over in Hanestown in the 60's and 70's and worked for Piedmont. I've got some stories I will share about Richard Childress in our neighborhood, and my small contribution to a NASCAR championship in the 80's. I'll try to take time and write them down in another comment later. And I am doing it honoring the Winston Cup Museum and the personal thanks for bringing back such wonderful memories, although the video is under such sad circumstances. It is a shame Winston-Salem and the powers that be are such low life individuals. Not a gut amongst any of those morons anymore.

This video is a mighty fine replacement though. Learning about these cars’ history could keep me entertained for days straight. Lol Is there a part two video? Did you learn info about the 80s Budweiser monte?

Great video as always. 8:58 I really appreciate the attention to details you show cool to see these shots from under the car and the small stuff that makes up the whole. A vintage stock car racing tour with open pits could be a nice way to bring these museum pieces to more people in a fun, multi-sensory, unforgettable experience.

I agree completely. Thanks Will!
