Jeff Gordon NASCAR Pit Practice Racer.

Here is your chance to own a piece of NASCAR racing history that was thought to have disappeared but is now available at RK Motors of Charlotte, NC.

This 1997 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet Monte Carlo was built as a research and development (R&D) project with the intention of being raced but it was needed elsewhere.

The racecar was put into service as a Pit Stop Practice car to raise funds for the Hendrick Marrow Program that was established in 1997. After several years of helping with a great cause, this racecar was parked at the Hendrick Motorsports facility until it was acquired by an employee. In late 2017, it was then acquired by Rhine Enterprises in Denver, NC. At that time, it started to undergo a complete meticulous restoration with completion in 2021 for the current owner.

Since being done, this racecar was tested and tuned on only one-track day.

Power comes from a fresh 358 c.i.d., 18-degree HMS engine with a new Holley carburetor and approximately 700 h.p. The transmission is a fresh Jerico 4-speed manual connected with a new driveshaft to the rear end that has new 3.82 gears. The clutch was also replaced during the restoration.

All the wiring has been replaced and is new. A 22-gallon fuel cell with new bladder and components have been installed or replaced.

Other new items include windshield, springs, duct hoses, fuel pump, brake lines, fittings, hoses, shocks were rebuilt, ignition boxes, belts and more.
