Gorgeous Vintage NASCARs at Talladega!

There’s something about old-school stock cars that always gets me hella sidetracked, so I knew it was bad news when I wandered into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame at Talladega today with "only" an hour and change to spare before the start of the Aaron’s 312. Yep, the spectacle of all these venerable race winners and record setters did in fact make me miss the first few laps the race. But how was I supposed to peel myself away from the Monte Carlo that Dale Earnhardt Sr. drove to his first Winston Cup championsip? Or Tiny Lund’s Daytona 500-winning ’64 Galaxie? Or (for the love of God) this Roger Penske AMC Matador that swept the NASCAR circuit in the 70′s?? Sheesh, it’s a wonder I got out of this place at all. There’s a few more shots below the jump, and you’ll be able to browse nearly all the Hall of Fame cars once our complete photos are posted in our Events section next week!
