Product Description
AUTOGRAPHED BUDDY BAKER 1977 "GRAY GHOST" OLDSMOBILE CUTLASS 1/24 ACTION - THE BOX HAS SOME DAMAGE, BUT THE CAR IS IN PERFECT NEW CONDITION
These come personally autographed by Buddy Baker himself. Comes with a certificate of authenticity from an official Lionel distributor. This is Buddy Baker’s “Gray Ghost” - the Fastest Car in Daytona History.
Buddy Baker’s “Gray Ghost” was a ninja with an engine.
The silver and gray No. 28 1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 sliced through the field and blew by the
race leaders without them ever seeing it coming.
The car was so stealthy and so fast, that Baker wheeled the Gray Ghost to a win from the pole
in the 1980 Daytona 500® and set a record average speed of 177.602 mph while doing it. That
Daytona record still stands today.
After his competitors complained the car’s paint job gave Baker an unfair advantage because it
blended into the Daytona asphalt, NASCAR® required the team to add Day-Glo strips to the front
of his car.
Now, for the very first time, Lionel NASCAR Collectibles is excited to offer the hood-open,
trunk-open die-cast of the infamous “Gray Ghost”. It’s a must-have piece of racing history for the
die-hard NASCAR® fan and collector.
