If you are into the history of the GN as it relates to NASCAR, then you need this:

He won the Cup in '81 & '82 in this Regal and the die cast is hand signed by the man himself. I've got one and it rocks. His success was what the GN celebrates.




I have one of these in the 1/64 scale. I have another Nascar Regal 1/64 scale with the 1/64 Semi tractor and trailer. Can't remember the drivers name would have to go home and look. lol It was a Raybestos Buick Regal.

the Regal was the car to beat after the redesign in 81.. they were more aerodynamic than anything else on the track, and they won a lot of races as a result... the Fox bodied Thunderbird, the Monte SS, and the Grand Prix 2+2 were all made to be better than the Regal on the high banks of the NASCAR speedways... that's just how things worked back then- if they wanted to win, they built a better car and sold it to the public to make it legal for NASCAR homologation.
