Rusty Wallace's Legendary "Midnight" NASCAR Race Car is Track Ready Again! (Ford C3 Engine Sounds)
What happens here
The car was stored between its final racing period and the 2013 restoration, always carefully watched over. For a time in the early 2000s, it was displayed as a show car, but with an incorrect '98 Taurus body and 2000 decals, which was later corrected during the full restoration. 'Midnight' eventually stopped being used in competitive racing because, despite its dominance, the competition caught up, and the car's aging chassis couldn't keep pace with newer designs.
Goal: Document the car's history between active racing and full restoration.
