Tony Stewart

[THarrison351]

I always had a great respect for Anthony Wayne "Tony" Stewart going back to his days in USAC and was totally amazed when he won all three championships in 1995: Silver Crown, Sprint Car, and Midget. With his success in Indycar, three driver's championships in NASCAR, other forms of motorsports, and a championship car owner, there's just not to many people to compare to except maybe his namesake, Anthony Joseph "AJ" Foyt. I'm pretty sure that's where he adopted his stylized number 14 from when he started driving for Carl Haas with a partnership of 50% to create Stewart-Haas Racing.

I've had this display case from my other house and I wasn't sure what I wanted to put in it. I was perusing eBay and noticed there were many Stewart diecasts selling for ridiculously low prices. So I had a few of his team drivers in my collection, but none of his cars. I now have five on display along with two more on the way. I also have three Stewart-Haas cars in there as well for right now. The four other cars are space fillers for the time being. I want to get a truck, Indycar, and a late model dirt car to finish filling the case.

The decals were an unexpected bonus. Last year I purchased some Stewart-Haas decals and Penske decals for my toolbox. I new I had an extra one somewhere in my stash and I was surprised to find the Smoke decal in the envelope.

One of my favorite drivers. Great display.

Nice!  I always liked the Home Depot car - one of my favorite schemes.  And Tony is an interesting "character".
