Petty Museum to Sell Original Adam Petty Diecast Cars August 16, 2016 NASCAR LEVEL CROSS, NC – The Petty Museum today announced they will begin selling the original diecast cars of Adam Petty, the fourth generation driver of the Petty family. The Museum will sell the original No. 45 diecasts in 1/64 scale and 1/12 scale at a cost of $8 and $45 dollars respectively. Proceeds from sales of the diecast cars will benefit the Petty Family Foundation. The Foundation will then donate funds to support Victory Junction, the camp built in honor of Adam Petty. Additional donations will go into the college tuition fund of Adam’s nieces and nephews. “After Adam’s accident, all of his merchandise was taken off the shelves across the country,” explained Sharon Farlow, Executive Director, Petty Museum, and daughter of Richard Petty. “The family and the Museum had this merchandise stored until earlier this year when we began to sell his shirts and hats. We are now ready to sell the diecast cars that we have in stock.” “Our purpose is to always remember Adam,” continued Sharon. “This is an opportunity for fans to also remember Adam and at the same time make a purchase that will give back to the Petty Family Foundation and help aid Victory Junction, a place that we all cherish.” Adam Petty, son of Kyle and grandson of Richard, died May 12, 2000, in a practice crash at New Hampshire Motor Speedway; he was 19. Fans may purchase the diecast cars and all remaining original Adam Petty merchandise at the Petty Museum located at 309 Branson Mill Road in Level Cross, N.C.
