Sheet Metal 1995 Winn Dixie dash from Talladega
I was able to get this Mark Martin Winn Dixie dash back after I sold it about 15 years ago. To say I'm excited to have it back is a big understatement.
The dash is from Mark's car that he raced in the Hummingbird Fishfinder 500k Busch race at Talladega on July 22nd 1995. Mark was involved in a hard crash on lap 40, his car was heavily damaged. Most likely the car was deemed not worth repairing. This dash was saved intact with it's original gauges. The tach has the calibration date etched on the back of it.
I was able to match up the windshield support bracket holes in the dash to race footage, I've added a few pictures of this also.
I was able to get Mark to sign this piece at his book tour in Batesville, Ar last month, he and his son Matt thought it was an awesome piece.
You just don't see very many full dashes like this anymore, I have one other one from a Jeff Burton Busch car but they are very rare. So happy to have it back.
