For whatever reason at Rockingham in 2001-2004 they ran Pfizer instead of Viagra.

It was for diecast purposes. They ran one plain Pfizer car per year so Hot Wheels specifically could sell a track-accurate livery.

Crazy enough, I have one of those 'regular' 1:64th cars from back then. Amazing how well those Hot Wheels cars from that time period have held up outside of their packaging. :)

Going through my 2001 set and noticed I didn't have this #27 Food City / Raovac, Kenny Wallace car that was ran at the 2001 Food City 500 at Bristol. Does anyone know if this car was made and if so could help me find it possibly? Thanks. 2001-27fl-rayo.jpg2001-27fl-rayo2.jpg2001-27foodcity.jpg

while I'm at it, 16 Stacy Compton cars. :p
As far as I can tell he had a different logo on the trunk for every race so there are a bunch missing but without reference material there isn't much to do. If pics of the missing ones turns up I can always add them later.

And before anybody asks, yes, that's on my new 'V4' Dodge template. Gave @Riviera71 early access to it. ;)

Any ideas what's on the rear of the car? Looks like 2 rows where the top one seems to be Hills... but the bottom row doesn't look like the normal "coffee" with twirly things around it.
I have painted (not yet posted though) his Coke 600 car and that one has "head for the hills" on the rear but this definitely looks like the regular Hills Bros on top.

EDIT: Kinda looks like Hills bros salutes american heroes on the rear too?

It is missing but for a good reason :p
This version only ran in practice, for the race the "Get well..." text was in white and they added a US Airforce logo too.
As much as I enjoy being able to finish a DNQ car, practice versions of cars that the team themselves changed for the race seems a bit much lol

@Riviera71 I should have looked, there is no passed inspection 'Racecar' decal on the car. Which means it wasn't from the race. :happyblush
Racecar sticker or not, they don't seem to mind changing decals around lol (thinking about the 2002 #91 Mountain Dew and the 2001 #85 Bill Boruff car)

:evilsmile:

I did point this one out (& it's two versions), with the addition of 4 other possible missing Rudd cars from '01 here: https://stunodracing.net/index.php?threads/missing-2001-cars-original-cup.15708/post-160088

EDIT: Add another one. At Rockingham1, they had a PENSKE Racing Shocks decal on (at least) the passenger side behind the numbers. Only showed up on race day.

I found this Ward burton car, he ran this in rockingham 1 with a keffer logo on both of the rear quarter panels. 1711884768920.png
I tried to zoom as much as possible to see what rusty's dale earnhardt logo look like, if i remember correctly, jeff also had this logo on his car aswell.
