Description
Lot #351 - Robert Yates Racing 2006-2007 NASCAR Nextel Cup #88 Ford Fusion race car. Built in-house by Robert Yates Racing in 2006 and raced by Hall of Famer Dale Jarrett and recent Hall of Fame nominee Ricky Rudd in 2006-07. Dale Jarrett raced it as the UPS car, while Ricky Rudd raced it as the Snickers Car. Car comes complete with documentation signed by the NASCAR Hall of Famer Robert Yates. This documentation includes the setup of the races in which the car participated in 2006 and 2007. This car raced in Atlanta Motor Speedway in 2006, Texas Motor Speedway in 2006, Homestead Miami Speedway in 2006 and Las Vegas Motor Speedway in 2007, when driven by Ricky Rudd. The car also includes a team uniform and stats in regards to the race setup. This is the last year Robert Yates actually built their race chassis in house before selling his NASCAR team ownership. The car was purchased from Robert Yates by NASCAR Champion Jimmy Johnson's former race engineer. Previous owner purchased a new Roush Yates Racing 358 NASCAR Cup 850hp engine. The car is running and ready for racing, but after simple nut and bolt check. Definitely a huge part of NASCAR history with not only NASCAR Hall of Famer Robert Yates but Winston Cup Champion Dale Jarrett Driver, as well as world-famous race car driver Ricky Rudd. As original and preserved as possible.
