    This is the stuff I love. I seriously cannot put into words how much I love these types of videos. Most people just rehash the same stuff.
    I want to know more about EVERYTHING. I want the history on every piece. I want the stories! I love this. Thank you so much!

    Yes. Do More. I just found this channel. I love this sort of thing. My NASCAR chassis knowledge ends in around the early to mid-90s. I learned a bit about the more "modern" chassis, from this video.
    Very interesting.

    I enjoyed this video very much. I have been hooked on NASCAR since I was in the military and stationed in Virginia in 1965. I was from the west coast and I had only watched midgets, sprinters and modifieds up until that time. Your history of behind the scenes of NASCAR is one of few channels like this. Keep up the good work! 😎 🏁

    It was sad seeing that John Wes Townley truck sitting there rotting away. I liked those Zaxby's paint schemes. Such a shame that John went downhill and tried to kill his ex wife. I am glad he didn't succeed but I am sad he had to die in order for her to live. Thank you for showing this NASCAR chassis graveyard to us!
