All these years later the black #3 is still the coolest looking car to ever grace NASCAR.
Was nice looking kinda reminds me of Gran National. car. Will always be my favorite
Facts
Coolest car and douchiest driver, must be nice to be born into money rather then having to work for it and borrow like Dale did . Really wish the number and paint scheme got retired
You forgot the mopar aero cars in 1968-1970
That look on that car is what made a fan out of a 9 yr old me.
You can tell his love and respect for his best friend, Dale Earnhardt.
True, but he also let his grandson use Dale's #3
The 3 was Richards number.
This makes me miss Dale even more! 😔
Never to be forgotten.🏩
Same
Forever the man, forever a fan. We'll never forget Dale.
If Dale was still here, I'd like to think he would be giving this tour along with Richard. RIP Dale
RCR museum is so cool. I'd love to see it in person.
One of the best tours to see.
I did like 17 yrs ago. Freaking awesome
I visit RCR every year in Feb to pay tribute to Dale and relive the history I grew up watching since I was a little guy from the early 80's. You can feel a presence there that you have to visit to understand. It's hard to believe it's been 20 years.
Where is this place
Its at RCR in Welcome, NC just outside of Lexington.
Never got tired watching black GM Goodwrench #3!
I’m in the process of moving digging through all my Earnhardt stuff, witch I have a lot, been throwing in Race,s everyday here I’m fricking miss my Man, Racing ain’t the same, I’m sorry, but it’s true, Thanks for the memory,s MR GOODWRENCH !!! 3.....RIP....
That's got to be tough to walk through there without Dale around. Richard and Dale were so close because they both were racers and knew what each other wanted in racing. I'm glad Richard was able to do this tour because I'm sure that there are moments where misses Dale. But I'm sure having those cars around helps with the healing process as Dale Earnhardt drove those cars and its like having him there.
Great tour Richard!!! I’ve been to the original museum back in 94 when Dale was still alive. RCR had a open house, and EVERYONE that works there, was signing autographs, and I got almost ALL of them. I even got Richard’s wife Judy to autograph a picture. I waited 7 hours to get Dale’s autograph, and he gave me a thumbs up, and smile. Most everyone was getting racing memorabilia signed, but I had a copy of Realtree Magazine, with Dale on the cover. He harvested a trophy whitetail at the Sanctuary in Michigan. Bill Jordon signed the back cover next to a picture of his trophy, and said “tell Dale he better sign this, because I said so”. I think that’s why Dale had that big smile on his face, when I told him what Bill said, because next to racing, hunting was his passion. I really want to go to the new museum, especially after watching this video.
This has to be my favorite garage tour so far. This was really, a candid look at RCR in the past and also NASCAR as well, as both entities were virtually unrecognizable from their current forms today. I loved seeing these things in high-quality unseen anywhere else, even the classic Dale cars. They popped. The old shop looks just fantastic too. I really want to be able to see this place in-person. I'd be staring at everything for hours if I had the chance lmao
@Two Black Labs Ooh that sounds even better. Unfortunately I live in SoCal but if I ever find myself in a position to head there I'd do it. Hopefully one of these days that happens.
This was literally the shittiest, fastest, least cared about tour of a mans private museum I have ever seen....
"Imagine me trying to convince Dale Earnhardt to drive this... Lets wander over here!"
Lmao 🤣
I don't know- one of Dale's first dirt race cars was pink.
@@suestaley844 wait wot
It’s documented he hated that car
I have been to the museum and RCR campus several times and find something new every time...Dale was the Man!
As Richard Childress often says: "Only in America!"
This museum is legendary
Crazy that Austin won the race 20 years after Dale did to the day, and had his own penny in the car. That's pretty sick
Right. I still remember watching AD on fox win the 500. I been a dale sr/jr fan for years and seeing the 3 win it 20 years after dale, its something i wont forget
I remember his win, but I also remember the crash before the finish too.
The fix was obviously in lol sheep
Richard Childress is a class act! Thank you for such great memories.😎
Richard has aged really well
Agreed!
Lmao it's plastic surgery
@@sgtpepper6379 Lookin' like Wayne Newton. lol
Its called a facelift
I was thinking the same thing!!!!
So much history in that museum. Hey NASCAR I think Rick Hendrick should do the next Garage Tour he has some really cool cars in his museum as well.
I agree with you
That's a great idea
Richard, thank you for all you've done. We love you!
Good to see Mr. Childress. His museum is a very special place to visit.
Glad also to see the charitable contributions, as that is representative of giving when you've been blessed with a lot.
Of course, with COVID, we are seeing how important immunity is--and how important the foods we eat, along with our exercise, affects our health. When NASCAR starts to educate people and change the fast food and cola sponsorships, I will be very happy.
Thank you. Blessings.
You’ll Just Never Get It Will Ya
This video made me cry a little. NASCAR died with Dale. I miss my dad, my uncle Hank and Larry Bliss; they all made me a big huge fan of NASCAR and Dale WAS NASCAR. Time, you cruel bastard. God bless Dale
Same here Andy. At 61 years of age I've learned one thing for sure...time heals nothing. God bless you Andy.
Thank you......still missing Dale and you together. Your loyalty to each other was the envy of the Racing World when Dale had DEI up and going but would only drive that Black 3 Car for RCR. Greatest period in racing.
Watched every race that was on TV from mid 80's until that fateful day in 2001. Haven't had the desire to watch a race since. It surprised me that I cried for such a long time over losing Dale. I guess it wasn't until we lost him that I realized he was my hero. RIP
Boy I really love to visit RCR, Hendrick and Penske museums one day. The history there ought to be amazing.
Hendrick wasn't worth it. But RCR is 110%
Dale Earnhardt Senior was awesome in four different decades, even in his last full season he finished 2nd in points in 2000. He was the most consistent driver in the toughest era of racing the man was absolutely one of a kind. He was my idol growing up the Intimidator a legend of legends #3 🏁
King Bubba Wallace the Michael Jordan of NASCAR will surpass him one day!
@@JayYo21 Scrubba will be out of cup in a few years
@@lcd2426 his name is King Bubba and now that he has a real team he will take over the sport of NASCAR. Bubba is a top5 talent who will win a championship in the next 2 years.
What an extremely emotional place .. so many memories.
I wish dale was here with us . really sucks 😞i miss that man
That's an awesome collection from Richard Childress. I'm glad I watched Dale Earnhardt raced when I was a kid since 1998. Even though Dale is long gone, but he was my hero to start off with. Plus, RCR is my favorite team too.
Thanks Richard for the Tour , your very successful and thanks for putting that Legend in your car for everyone to see the greatest
I remember the first time I went in that museum when I walked in I got chills like I’ve never got before in my life and never had them again like that
👍🙌
I had chills wen i walked up to Dales ‘98 Daytona car. Id love to visit the museum again
I know it's not possible, but I so wish Goodwrench could still be a sponsor.
I miss GM Goodwrench
Rip GM goodwrench
I always wonder, how this Goodwrench paint scheme would look on pontiac, oldsmobile or buick.
@@loutenant9480 look up Mike Eddy GM Goodwrench 88 Pontiac. Eddy was sponsored by goodwrench in the ASA and ran same paint as big E
Too bad it went out of business in 2011 or so
Was really excited to see the Regular Car Reviews museum.... ....
Richard, I remember you having your shop on Waughtown Street beside the curb market. We used to aggravate the crap out of you for decals, lol. Man that's a long time ago! You have gone so far since those days. Still ride by the old shop on Gumtree every day back and forth to work. Congrats to you Sir!
I hadn't seen Richard since 1975 at Daytona. He was in the Firecracker 400 & I was entered in the Paul Revere 250 IMSA race. I borrowed a gas ⛽ can from him in anticipation of having to refuel our 32 gal tank. Unfortunately I didn't last that long.
It's good to see Richard still out there & apparently still in good health. We had some good times together. Great guy.
Haven't heard Ricky Rudd's name in a long time. Miss the old days of Nascar. I've been to this museum and it's worth the trip. RIP Dale! ✌️
Thank You RCR on keeping the memories and the respect of Dale #3 alive and cherished! He was what brought me to nascar
That 87 Monte Carlo was my favorite. Sweet ride.
Im so happy he's been able to keep all these legends
I agree with you
Well, Dale left the number to him, thus being the only thing left untouched by the witch, allowing him to use it as he pleases
You guys are really making the Covid stir crazy worse with all these shop tours... I need to go look at this!
I’m pretty sure they were the only 2 people there and the camera man was probably wearing a mask and they were definitely 6 feet apart
Stood next to Richard at a race at Brooklyn Michigan Speedway.. got his autograph as well .. he was really nice ..
New found respect for RC from this video. So glad he is still around and really hope to get to the shop one day to see these amazing cars
I can image the conversation
Richard:hey dale you wanna get out of you iconic car to drive this acid trip on wheels
I love the fact that you have a charity thanks for giving back Richard those are the things to be proud of!
Honestly that 01 hauler is my favorite, I can just vision the FOX pre race interviews around it before the 500. My God that is fascinating
Fantastic ! 20 years... Still like feels yesterday...
The Official Museum of *Dæl*
More like the ONLY museum of DE3 and his legacy. The witch turned the other one into ruin
@@S.K.R.E.Inc. your too kind calling her a witch, just change the w with a B and that will be more like it
@@GretaVanZeppelin1996 might as well spell it you’re..🤷♂️
20 years have gone by and still today racing still isn't the same after he passed away
We still and ALWAYS mess you
Dale #3 The Real #3
Good job Richard, damnit thanks for the tour...
He's going over a 1/3rd of whats in there. I spent about 3 hours in there.
Rod Osterlund sold his team to JD Stacy half-way through 1981. Dale Earnhardt didn't like his new owner and around the July Talladega weekend Earnhardt made an agreement to run the last 10 races for Childress. But when it was all over with, Childress wasn't ready for Earnhardt. 1982 and 1983, Ricky Rudd drove number 3 and eventually won in 1983. Earnhardt goes back to Childress in 1984 and from that point on, there was no stopping those guys.
This is honestly the content we need. And hearing from our legendary NASCAR owners we love is awesome. So cool to see him so excited about his teams history. Really great video NASCAR and thank you for continuing to be the best fan service 🔥
I've been here , coolest thing was the flat tire from Daytona in I believe 88 or 89 . The foresight to save that tire is unbelievable!
Thanks for the tour mr childress. Some great history there. I know your very proud. Especially with Austin a ty coming in the series. Congratulations
One of the coolest experiences I've ever had! So much history packed together in one space.
I 've been there and it's cool
20 years ago today. RIP Dale
One could even imagine that had Dale not passed away, a literal fleet of #3 Goodwrench Chevrolets would be seen racing even today, perhaps with Dale himself as the team principal, Dale Jr. possibly having inherited the drive and being a championship winner
Thanks RC for preserving your and Dale's legacy. I hope to visit RCR someday
You made Dale proud RIP Dale :(
Cool random story. So I currently live in Welcome, NC, less than a mile from the RCR shops and museum. Way back when I was in third grade in 1997, my mom picked my sister and myself up from school one afternoon, and we just went kind of cruising around, we ended up driving down past the RCR shops for whatever reason. As we were turning around to head back out to the main road, a helicopter appears in the sky. It was flying really low, and looked like it might even be landing. We stopped to watch it land, which it did behind one of the shops, on the other side of a tall barb-wired fence. And guess who steps out of the back once it lands? None other than the Intimidator himself. It was unmistakably him. He just casually walked into the open garage door in back of the shop, and vanished inside. I begged my mom to take us inside the museum to try and see him, but she wouldn't do it.
Thank you Richard for preserving the memories.
I hope all these cars and items are going go be protected for generations to come. To many times grandkids and great grandchildren sell off history to the highest bidders. All these cras need to be held in a trust.
Thank you for all the memories RCR. Thank you..
People that not only save history but persevere it in its original condition are the real heros. Thank you Richard Childress for keeping everything the way you did and presenting it how you have. I love that you left some of the cars in race day condition.
My mom worked for the local Chevrolet dealership from 1982 until retirement this year and growing up we got all the best Goodwrench and Intimidator swag. I hope my mom saved all the old gear lol. We were no doubt a #3 household.
I will probably never get to go see all those wonderful memories in person but it gives me chill bumps to see all of this and grateful this video was made.
Keep up the great work RCR. Bowties forever!
Poor Richard. Things are still the way they were when they packed up for Daytona in 01. This makes me wanna take a road trip to visit the museum.
wow wish i could go and visit your mesium, its insane, i would love to see Dale racing car in person !!!
This is fantastic. Thank you RC.
That is a lot of Dale
Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Dale Earnhardt Jr lol
The way it should be.👍
The one safe haven for fans everywhere because he left the number to his best friend and not the bitch who ruined his son and employee's numbers, thus allowing Childress to do it his way
I have been in this museum at least twice, and I would love to see it again. I drive a black s10 truck, that was purchased new from dale Earnhardt Chevrolet.
I took a self guided tour of this two years ago.Lots of history here.Walking thru the hauler was really special.Chocalate Myers was in his office on air with his radio podcast.Highly recommend this tour.Check out the Childress Winery and gift shop close by.
Thanks Richard 👍
I miss dale sr so much I wish I could have seen him race
Awesome Sir. Thanks 🏁
What an experience that would be to be able to visit this museum. Amazing 👏
I live around the corner and honestly haven't been that many times
@@RacerGirl48 That many times? Haha..ok then. Thank you for that.😉
I love how he left the shop just like it was when they were working in it, tools and all
I love how clean and glossy they are.
Best looking car is the 76 Monte Carlo #3 Richard drove. Just my opinion of course.
That’s so weird that little boy gave a penny to Austin Dillon and he never knew about that little girl that gave a penny to dale Earnhardt Senior it’s crazy
Seems like a great man! From humble beginnings
I still cant believe they put the 3 car back on the track.
@Ernest George no shit.
Definitely bucket list to go there
The one thing left untouched from the wicked witch's tyranny, figuratively and literally (I'm amazed it was left exactly as it was 20 years ago), someday I'll find that museum and visit it as soon as this turbulent ride in the grass is over
She will probably sue Childress for saying his name and having his name on the cars lol
Not exactly, because for starters, Childress was with Earnhardt longer than that bitch ever was, plus she would most likely lose because Dale left the number and his cars to Richard, meaning they're in good hands. Also, isn't it illegal to sue for such a petty reason as saying the name out loud?
20 years ago today. We miss you Intimidator
Can y'all do a video of Richard Childress telling the story of Dale Earnhardt Sr. buying all the merchandise from the shop and why he did it? I think that's something everyone should hear. Such a heart-warming story of the man, the myth, and the legend.
You are the MAN Richard! True class act!
One of my favorite cars that Dale drove was the Atlanta 96 car, I liked it so much I got the die cast version!
thanks for the tour Richard...RIP Dale
Mr. Richard as a fan of RCR i just wished you would not have brought out the #3 i know that was up to you but i can't take nothing away from you as an owner yes Dale will be missed every Daytona we are reminded of his greatness but thank you for letting everybody see just how fond you was of dale not as just a car owner but as his true friend thank you very much Long live the #3
This
Amazing shop its got allot of memories wins championships history Richard is a wonderful owner and person with a great heart very nice museum mr childress
I like the clint bowyer #07 car
Thanks for the great tour.
Pretty awesome tour. You can almost smell the history
God bless Richard Childress......hes gonna get back on top
Nothing would scare a driver more than having that black 3 car in your rear view mirror
Maybe Mecum Auctions needs to go visit RCR before they authenticate some of the cars they’ve been sending across the block lol
We miss dale rip brother thanks for having the museum
I was actually there at the museum twice
How was it? :D
I miss him so much 😢
Outstanding! Hope to visit that place some day.
Absolutely love this video❤️
On my bucket list for sure
Not a fan of "ParityCar" but kinda glad I spent this 12 minutes watching a self made man, walk thru the how and why he's where he is today. Kudos, Mr Childress, for all that u have done for your sport, your family and your charities. You don't need a peeon like me to tell you this, but well done!!!
