Unfortunately, the iconic Winston Cup Museum is shutting down permanently. December 16th will be the museum’s last day of operation. As a blessing in disguise, this has provided NASCAR collectors a chance to own a piece of history. Considering the museum’s acute financial crisis, authorities have decided to auction off a major part of the collection at the Mecum Auto Auctions.

The auction will be held in Kissimmee, Florida, from January 2 to January 14, 2024. This is an incredible opportunity to own some of the well-remembered cars in NASCAR and race-used collectibles. The Mecum official website is welcome to registrations, and this is your chance to grab your favorite driver’s memorable vehicles.

To participate in the auctioning process, you can register for a MyMecum profile, allowing you to enlist. The profile will enable you to access sale results as well.

The first car to be auctioned will be the 25th Anniversary Car, allotted to lot U143. The collection has been named The Rise of NASCAR’s Modern Era Museum collection, and the bidding will begin on January 14th. The auctions start on January 2, so you can grab other memorabilia like pit crew parts, car equipment, and firesuits.

Many supercars and luxury cars will also be auctioned in the initial days of the auctions. Osceola Heritage Park will be hosting the event until the end, assuring an RV camping experience for attendees as well. Food and beverage outlets are present throughout the venue, and multiple needs have been attended to.
