Notes:
This was the 2004 NASG Convention car. Ken Garber remembers that something went wrong with Des Plaines Hobbies' order, and they only wound up getting the cars with the same road number (there were supposed to be two different road numbers, where one was to be used for the NASG Convention Car, and one for just regular sales).
