This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Inspect the orange lower panels for chips and the small side lettering for wear. On a carded car, look through the blister from more than one angle.
The large car drawing at the top of the card is series artwork. Identify the Nova by the toy beneath the blister and its printed model name.
Collector questions
Why does the card show a different car in the artwork?
That illustration belongs to the Dragstrip Demons packaging. The actual white-and-orange Nova and the Wilshire Shaker label identify this release.
