1996 Ford Thunderbird NASCAR Race Car by Roush Racing

This Ford Thunderbird is a NASCAR Cup Series race car initially built and campaigned by Roush Racing. It was driven as the #16 car by Ted Musgrave from 1994 to 1996 and later refinished in the #6 Valvoline livery associated with Mark Martin. The car underwent a refurbishment in April 2025, featuring a new 358ci V8 engine, a Jerico four-speed manual transmission, and a road course-specification rear end. It sports Ford Thunderbird-style bodywork and the #6 Mark Martin Valvoline livery, along with features like a ButlerBuilt racing seat, a full roll cage, and 15" Aero wheels.
