TNN @ Petty's Museum ~ 1992 (YouTube video)

Richard Petty's race car & white (RM23UOA164647 ~ recently sold) Superbirds, can be seen in this video I had from my VCR days. It' a shame that I wasn't able to record the entire show.

Neat....I had never seen the "Cribs" episode.

Funny how in 2010, Richard almost sounded disappointed that he traded a racecar for the white 'Bird.

Hugh Hawthorne got a priceless piece of petty history

The white Bird was acquired by Richard to display next to the race car at the museum, as shown in the video.  It was so people could see the difference between the two.  When they moved the museum to the downtown location a little over 10 years ago, the white Bird did not fit into the display and went into storage.     A couple of DSAC members went down to help pack the museum for the move back to the race shop location.   They said they had heard the white car might be available and one of them made a deal on it.    He got the keys directly from Richard.
