Anthony Joseph Foyt Jr. (born January 16, 1935) is an American retired auto racing driver who has raced in numerous genres of motorsports. His open wheel racing includes United States Automobile Club Champ cars, sprint cars, and midget cars. He raced stock cars in NASCAR and USAC. He won several major sports car racing events. He holds the USAC career wins record with 159 victories,[1] and the American championship racing career wins record with 67.[2]
He is the only driver to win the Indianapolis 500 (which he won four times - 1961, 1964, 1967 and 1977), the Daytona 500, the 24 Hours of Daytona, and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Foyt won the International Race of Champions all-star racing series in 1976 and 1977. In the NASCAR stock car circuit, he won the 1964 Firecracker 400 and the 1972 Daytona 500. Foyt survived three major crashes that caused serious injuries, and narrowly escaped a fourth. Foyt's success has led to induction in numerous motorsports halls of fame.
In the mid-1960s, Foyt become a team owner, fielding cars for himself and other drivers. Since retiring from active race driving, he has owned A. J. Foyt Enterprises, which has fielded teams in the CART, IRL, and NASCAR.
Foyt, a veteran who had been racing professionally for eight seasons before trying his hand at NASCAR racing, only needed ten races to get his first victory. Richard Petty dominated the 1964 Firecracker 400 until he dropped out with engine problems. Foyt swapped the lead with Bobby Isaac for the final 50 laps of the summer event at the Daytona International Speedway. Foyt passed Isaac on the final lap to win the race.
In January 1965, Foyt qualified and ran in the front of the pack most of the day with Dan Gurney and Parnelli Jones in the Motor Trend 500 at Riverside. Parnelli retired with mechanical issues, leaving Gurney and Foyt to contest the lead. Late in the race, dueling with Gurney, Foyt spun. His car refired, and he charged through the field in an attempt to regain lost positions. After running hard to catch leader Gurney, Foyt's brakes failed entering turn nine at the end of Riverside's mile-long, downhill back straight. Foyt turned the car into the infield at more than 100 mph, was launched off an embankment, dropped into a lower area and slammed into a sandy embankment, violently tumbling end-over-end several times. The track doctor at Riverside International Raceway pronounced Foyt dead at the scene of the severe crash, but fellow driver Parnelli Jones revived him after seeing movement. Foyt suffered severe chest injuries, a broken back, and a fractured ankle. Footage of his flipping No. 00 Ford, owned by Holman Moody, is featured in the final scene of the movie Red Line 7000.
Foyt ran out of gas near the end of the 1971 Daytona 500, and Petty passed him for the win. Foyt again had the car to beat in the 1972 Daytona 500, but this time succeeded in a dominant performance. Only three drivers led during the race. In 1979 at the Daytona 500, Foyt was running in fifth place, but when Cale Yarborough and Donnie Allison had their famous tangle on the final lap, Foyt finished in the third spot behind Darrell Waltrip and Richard Petty who again won the race. When Foyt pulled up next to Petty after the checkers to congratulate him, he was called "a true gentleman" during the broadcast.
In 1988 Foyt was banned from NASCAR for six months and fined $20,000 following a series of incidents during the Winston 500. His ban was reduced to two months following an appeal and his fine was raised to $35,000.
Foyt's final NASCAR Winston Cup Series race was the 1994 Brickyard 400, the inaugural running of that race. Foyt finished 30th, four laps behind winner Jeff Gordon. Foyt entered the race again in 1995 and 1996, but failed to qualify both times. In 1995, his attempt was stymied when rain washed out second round time trials.

Another winner Chris, Excellent tutorial on decals and application of the floor polish! Keep them coming!!
Thank you!
Seeing these old dirt track racers takes me back to childhood when my cousin " Marvin" raced on the dirt tracks where we are all from. My dad even helped Marvin build one of his race cars. My cousin " Craig" ( Marvin's son ) and me got in trouble once for playing in Marvin's race car. Marvin doesn't race anymore, but owns a race track in Birmingham Alabama and Craig now races for real. Gotta build me one of those. Beautiful job as always Chris !
I would build one of these Monte Carlo NASCAR kits just as a mean street car with another seat for the passenger lol!
As always, another nice build. Those old NASCAR kits never disappoint.
Thank you Mark!
Building this now. Haven't done a model in probably 30 or more years. Big A.J. fan, so when I saw it I had to get it. This video has been immense help. Lot's of good tips. Wish I would have found it before I had started.
Again, I'm sure it's been said here or on another video somewhere, But you are like the Bob Ross of model building - except I don't fall asleep watching your work! Keep it up!
Wow, thanks!
I hope they come out with a Dale Earnhardt Sr car, that would be awesome
Search the web and you'll find one
I'm sure it will happen one day, if the license can be bought.
Theresa wont allow it. There are Fred Cady decals still around, though, I have the Wheaties and Wranglers still hanging around
@@crazytrain7114 That would be under Richard Childress not Earnhardt.

Never got into stock cars but after watching your recent builds Im going to try one out. Could be habit forming!! Thanks for the great video!
Glad you like them!
Wow! Great job! As usual! These stock cars are always fun as i enjoy applying the decals. Those wheels came out sick!
Thanks!
I always love the nascar builds
Thank you!
Great Build love the way you explain things 🐎Mr. Ed Says Just Have Fun Modeling
These NASCAR kits go together so nicely!
they do!
Chris I always enjoy your Salvino's JR stock car builds! This one is no exception thanks for another awesome build!
Thank you!
I really like watching your builds, but especially your Salvinos JR builds; they are awesome and your excitement is so contagious I have ordered 2, and will probably get more.
Thank you!
Its that funny kind of smell that smells....anchovy! "Mr Crabs"
Great build Chris.
Thank you!
You never disappoint! Got to see this one, amongst many other greats, at Rockingham back in the day when NASCAR was raced by men!
Thank you!
I do love the Tires! Very nice!
Looks beautiful!
Always an outstanding video and presentation.
Thank you!
Awesome! Beautimous! Good deal Chris! 👍👍🤘✌🏻, yeah AJ was one of my favorite drivers, that sumbuck did all kinds of racing! I wished they would come out with some of Jr Johnson’s cars, the cars he drove personally, you know, not just his racing team cars!
Thank you!
Great job again! I have learned so much and improved my skills over 100% just watching this channel. Thank you! It's been fun enjoying my COVID hobby, a redux of my middle school hobby. As an FYI, I couldn't find Pledge brand, so I got a different floor polish, but it works great! Pics coming to your FB page soon.
Great to hear!
All cool kits. What's fun with the '71, is that you can make your OWN livery with the sponsors you want to, or even create -fake- ones and make it YOUR race car!
Beautiful build.
You bet, make your own stock car, real or fantasy!
Is there a source to have custom decals made? I think it would be cool to have "my own" race car!
@@johncampbell4923 I know you can make your own. There are special paper for that. Or you can find someone who do their own aftermarket ones and ask them if they can make some for you.
I love your nascar kits the most
Thanks!
Sweet build, your decal application was awesome and quite informative
Thanks for sharing and giving recently back to the hobby old guy’s confidence 👍👍👍
Thank you!
I really enjoy detailed suspensions/steering arms.
Enjoy detailing yours to your heart's content. Have fun :)
Awesome NASCAR kits. Thank you for doing opening box. Have a great week sir.
Thank you!
I no so many questions but never thought abought useing floor wax on them
Another Awesome Build Chris! That Monte Carlo came out Beautifully!
Thanks for coming along!
Need to add this kit to my stash, used to drive by A J Foyts childhood home for years till it some how got demolished for new construction. Wish I had known it was going to happen I'd have grabbed the A J Foyt marker on the curb before hand.
Nice vid and a FUN build for anyone!!! 👍😉👍🙂👍
Thank you!
@@hpiguy 👍
Chris+ I ordered 4 of those transtar 4070As can't weight to see that gets built another great build keep it up
Hope you enjoy it!
@@hpiguy + Chris I always do great content on your channel as usual keep it up
Keep on keepin it simple Chris! THANK YOU!!!!
Always!
I find the hoods are hard to come off after the future finish. I started doing mine with hood off. Then put together after drying. As usual. I love your builds. Turned out great
Yup, like any clear it fills the gaps. Either pull gently or apply it off the car like you said.
Always love the race car builds. Reminds me of going to local races with my husband.
Thanks Mary!
Excellent job as always, Chris!! Thanks for all the tips!
Thanks for watching!
Love your reviews and builds ...you inspired me to get back into model building!! Stay safe Amigo!!
The music is awesome
Another fine job, Chris. They sure were Plain Janes back in the day. And it still looks good.
Thank you!
That's an awesome looking kit
Thanks for watching!
Sweet sticker decal delights
Thanks!
What a good looking build! I'm not a big NASCAR fan but WOW that's a cool looking kit. Just might have to get me one! 👍👍
Thank you!
Thanks for showing the future application. I'll try it on my next build.
Easy peasy!
Great build. Loved you demonstrated the Future floor polish again.
Thank you!
Looks great I use Grey primer water sand use a base coat clear system my friend tried your system he likes it great job can't wait for the next build I could watch this around the clock..
Cool, thanks!
I'm going to give them a call tomorrow and let them know what happened! I looked through the whole kit! Lol!
Turned out great
Thanks!
Can’t wait for the Mountain Dew car
So odd nowadays to see a car that isn't completely covered with contingency decals or has big huge logos on the hood and trunk, but that's how they were back in the day.
Always love these Salvino builds. Reminds me that I haven't really built a Stock Car in a long time, and I should really fix that.
Thanks!
Great Tom and Jerry music. I enjoy your vids. Thanks.
Glad you like them!
Striking looking model, beautiful job, thanks
Thank you very much!
Excellent terrific awesome impressive job you did on that model.well done.
Thank you very much!
I bought the Junior Johnson Monte Carlo kit! Mine is missing the rear quarter window pieces! But mine did come with the Chrome tree!
I was watching you build the AJ Foyt kit again! No rear quarter Windows on these? The instructions clearly shows them ! Kinda confusing! But you did such a Wonderful job on this car!
Found it! Great job Chris.
Thank you!
What. A. Beauty. Good build. Great Finished model. Thanks for the build plus the time you invest in editing and then in sharing.
Thank you very much!
Great video I have tried the future just seems I am doing something wrong the decals always seem to bubble up or move doesn't matter if it sits 2 days or a month
Way back in the early '70s my old man took me to an Indy car race here in New Jersey called the Trenton 200. Now it's been a decade or 5 since then but I'd bet A.J. Foyt was running along with other old time Indy drivers. Now back in 1985 while watching the coverage of the International Race of Champions, and waiting for my brand new 1985 IROC to be delivered, I found out that the shop that maintained the cars between races was 5 minutes down the road from me. Of course I went down and checked the place out, it was a nondiscript building in an industrial park. The day I visited I got lucky and they were loading up the cars for the next race. Somewhere I have dozens of pictures of the cars and each one had the drivers name on the sides and one was A.J. Foyt, along with Mario Andretti, Tom Sneva, Emerson Fittipaldi among others.
sweet!
Came out super sweet great build and video as always
Awesome thank you!
I have used a lot of your methods and tips.... Thx!!
Great new update like it very much.
Thank you!
Oh how I want that blank charger!!!
That's a winner.
MR has them in stock ready to go!
Would look great in the Marty Robbins livery. *hint hint*
Those are sweet I got mine the other day
They are!
I just received my first JR Salvino's kit -- the mountain dew monte carlo. Appears to be really high quality, and will likely get another JR Salvino's kit in the near future.
Enjoy!
Hi Chris, I picked up king Richard's 73 Petty charger but was disappointed that the kit did not include the vermillion red decals. I contacted my hobby shop and asked them to order the missing decal but apparently they do not buy directly from Salvinos. I'm so disappointed with my kit.
I said you have to buy them from Salvinos direct in the video.
At no point did I say they are included and made sure to say a few times they are an option.
No reason to be 'disappointed' with the kit. Order the decals from Salvinos yourself and enjoy your models.
This a beautiful model. I am re-entering the modeling hobby (cars) and really appreciate your advice to build models whatever way that makes us happy. I followed your advice to use Revive It floor polish to finishes and am getting this spider webbing effect when it dries. What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your kit builds. It motivates me to know I can build good looking models without having to take myself and the hobby too seriously.
Super Sweet Styrene Goodness!!!
I think so too!
Aktshually..... That's a really nice build 👍😎
Thanks 👍 Gary!
Kool build... Hey Chris just getting into this do I have to use the colors that are on the box?
The shine on the car was gorgeous. It looked like someone spent a very long time buffing it out. Great build Chris.
Thank you!
Nice review and build Chris. . Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Another cool car, top job 👍🇦🇺
Thank you!
This is the first AJ Foyt Nascar kit I ever recall seeing,,,
someone should re issue the skoal bandit or geoff bodines car.
sweet vid, nice cars.
For sure, I've been begging for a couple Bandits! Especially the cowboy logo ones.
Great review and build. Thanks for as always an honest review.any hint to brand of brush you use for applying future,i always find one that sheds.peace
I think mine are Atlas brand, sable brushes.
Awsome build
Thank you!
hey man, love these old kits, im glad here being reissued but i do have a question, will the future floor polish turn the decals and paint yellow like the testors clear coat use to? great job as usual on this one!!
I have not had it yellow yet.
I have had it crack now and then, not sure why, but a recoat solves it for me.
Gimme a Dew
Great build. Thank you!
Thank you!
I would love to see one of the older Dave Marcus rides come out.
Great videos Chris! I'm sure you are tired of the questions about applying Future, but is it okay to apply if the body has been polished with Tamiya polish?
I do not know about that, I've never used any polish before hand.
@@hpiguy Thanks for the reply Chris! Loved the gasser video. Nice to hear the sound of the spray can too. Hard to decide which I like better though because the music is good too! Thanks for posting all of these great videos. Getting ready to start my son on his first model kit. AMT Plymouth GTX convertible. He saw me watching your videos and now he is super excited to begin the next generation of model building. Cheers!
I never see you press down the decals to remove water and air bubbles from underneed the decals. Don't you do that?
Don't usually need to, they dry fine most of the time.
Them smell of Testors silver, brings me back to 1985..
Yeah!
Looks real good Chris nice build do you have your 43 car field yet
I've got quite a few for sure, thanks!
Very nice build again.
Thanks again!
You were saying you have the option to open the trunk how do you open your trunk on a car models
Slice it open with your hobby knife or a scriber.
Do you ever have problems with your spray can nozzles clogging up? If not, what's your secret? If so - how do you clean them?
Sure, I save all my spray can nozzles from used up cans and reuse them when one clogs. I also soak them in super clean until needed, eats the paint out of them.
@@hpiguy Super clean, never thought of that, genius!
Awesome!!!!!
Thank you!
I love your aditude on building kits. I don't whine if it's not perfect. Thanks.
Thank you!
Beautiful build mate 👍
Thank you!
I gotta try the silver Sharpie. Does it hold up?
I’ve been using Molotov, and other silver paint pens. They worked fine, but don’t take well to handling.
Great job, showing the deal installation! Maybe I’ve been spending too much time!
Thanks for the tips on using the Future clear!
Once dry in a minute the silver Sharpie is extremely durable.
Won’t the clear Pledge seal the hood shut to the body?
Sort of, but it pulls free with no issue after it dries up.
Too bad Salvinos can't do this for the old drag car and show rod kits
next time I by a model car I'll use floor wax
How do you use future floor polish
I see what you did there...
Is there a Cale Yarborough car kit out there?
Numerous. I built at least one on this channel, his Hardees car.
Search modelroundup.com for them.
What was missing from the kit .... An are all of the kits like that of that kit ?
jeff gordon ?????? when
I'm sure if they can get a license and produce that generation of kits it will happen. all those companies want big $$$$$$$ to make a kit, especially the huge names like Gordon, Earnhardt, etc.
Looks totally bitchin' 😁
pss nice build
Thank you!
Humity it's so bad that got me stock,i can't paint anything at all.....@#$&!?.
LOL yeah, I run a dehumidifier in the shop and it cures that problem.
i kanowe jr salvinos have yet to get one want to sub their stuff is the chit thanks cooter d ps dont tell the misses hahaha thanks again gooder stuff dou
