Classic Racing Art for Collectors & NASCAR Fans
This original 1981 Wood Brothers NASCAR Thunderbird print is a true piece of racing history. Featuring Neil Bonnett behind the wheel of the legendary No. 21 Purolator Ford, this rare two-page magazine spread captures the moment NASCAR adopted its “new formula” stock car design for the early 1980s. Clean lines, big horsepower, and the Wood Brothers touch — it’s all here.
If you grew up watching these cars run or you’re building out a racing-themed mancave or office, this one hits home. The Thunderbird was one of the most recognizable cars of the era, and Bonnett’s season with the Wood Brothers is still remembered by fans today.
A great piece for NASCAR collectors, Ford enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates the golden era of stock car racing.
✔ Original Vintage Print: Authentic 2-page 1981 NASCAR Thunderbird magazine ad, preserved and upcycled from a classic motorsports publication.
✔ Professionally Combined: Since this is a two-page ad, a very slight centerline may be visible — part of the character of vintage racing spreads.
✔ Permanently Dry Mounted: Each page is aligned and mounted on 3/16" foam board for a smooth, wrinkle-free finish.
✔ White Mat Included: Brings focus to the No. 21 Thunderbird and the classic Purolator livery.
✔ Modern Matte Black Frame: Clean 1¼" matte black wood frame complements the bold racing imagery.
✔ Protected & Ready to Hang: Clear glass, dust cover, and hanging hardware included.
✔ Overall Size: Approximately 12" × 20".
This isn’t just a flimsy magazine page tossed in a frame. Each print is carefully aligned, dry-mounted, matted, and handcrafted — transforming original motorsport ads into lasting wall art.
Craftsmanship Matters.

Yes. Their vintage advertisements are collected from old magazines, brochures, posters, estate sales, and flea markets, with material dating back to the 1920s. The Barracuda item you linked, for example, is specifically described as an original vintage magazine advertisement.
No. The signs and thermometers are high-quality reproductions of classic/vintage designs. They are made to capture the appearance and nostalgia of the originals rather than being original vintage pieces.
The original ads are professionally dry-mounted onto acid-free foam board. They are then finished with a white conservation mat to enhance the colors and provide a standard framing size. The Barracuda ad you linked uses this process and is paired with a white mat and satin-black wood frame.
