Inside a Massive Private Race Car Collection: Vintage NASCAR to TransAm! (AJ Henriksen's Garage)

What happens here

The discussion moves to a black Chevrolet Monte Carlo with the number 3, an old Busch Series car. AJ mentions it was restored by Gene Felton, a legendary engine builder, but its specific racing history is unknown. Next, a yellow Wrangler Jeans car (number 3) is shown, also a Busch Series car, whose detailed history is yet to be fully uncovered. The focus shifts to a blue and orange STP car (number 43), a David Pearson tribute, which was originally a street car converted for display.

Goal: Showcase more Busch Series cars and unique show cars
