The Petty family is one of the most famous names in automobile racing history, and the Lee Petty SPL was built to remember the man who started it all. Lee Arnold Petty (March 14, 1914 - April 5, 2000) was an American stock car racing driver who competed during the 1950s and 1960s. He was one of the pioneers of NASCAR and one of its first superstars. He is also the father of Richard Petty, who went on to become one of the most successful stock car racing drivers of all time. It was built to remember Lee after his passing in 2000.
The car was unfortunately left outside in the Las Vegas elements and harsh sun for the last 10 years, but even with the faded paint, the car still boasts the #42 and the Lee Petty name that were hand-painted many years ago. The car does run and drive and had a recent tuneup but because of the Las Vegas elements, it does have some rust in the body and undercarriage. It’s powered by a 217.8ci 6-cylinder engine paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. This car has been displayed at Daytona USA, Daytona Speedway, Pocono International Speedway, and Nazareth National Speedway. SOLD ON BONDED TITLE
