Among the many items at the Mecum Auction at Nashville Superspeedway were various race cars owned by NASCAR team owner Jack Roush.
Among the race vehicles on offer was the No. 99 Exide Ford F-150 Kurt Busch drove during his rookie 2000 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season? It sold for six figures with a final sales price of $110,000, and the buyer? None other than Kurt Busch himself!
"I got my old truck back," said Kurt in a video he recorded while traveling via plane during the auction bidding. "It was a little more than I wanted to spend, but it goes to Jack's pocket and Jack helped me a lot."
Reunited with an old friend. So excited to get this winning truck back. 26 years ago, this truck and I @rfkracing won @Doverspeedway in Sept 2000. Not many have original paint and airbrush detail. Headed to @roushyates next to freshen up the motor. pic.twitter.com/RnzGsv4fto

Kurt won at Dover with this exact chassis as part of a four-win season, ending his rookie campaign second in the championship. Of course, Kurt went on to enjoy a Hall of Fame NASCAR career, winning the 2004 NASCAR Cup Series championship, as well as 34 Cup races. Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Kurt's career is that those victories came with five different race teams and four different manufacturers.
