Got this in a trade and lost the cert.

Any help on who the auto is from on the car?

Roman numerals for 79, but that's not a standard car number. So, IDK.

Are you 100% that it’s a NASCAR driver’s signature? That’s the Darkhorse Mustang but isn’t actually a NASCAR Mustang. I’m looking up sample autographs from current NASCAR Ford drivers to see if I can find a match.

No, I just assumed. But has to be some driver, no less, right?

I would think so and NASCAR driver is a good place to start on a diecast like that.

Not sure who that could be. Possibly an IMSA sports car driver but it's worthless either way.

if it's not Sr, Jr, or Gordon you're not getting much value.

Yeah, but something to include in a lot.

This article might help narrow it down: LINK

But autograph hounds sometimes just get whatever they have on hand signed, so the car may not mean much.

According to Google Lens it's a reproduction of Henry Ford's signature and the car is worth 25 bucks

I like how the backgound shot is of so much importance.

Exactly. I have a Kurt Busch sig on a Clint Bowyer/Jack Daniels cap because it's the only thing I had on me that could be signed.

The most recent thing I can find on a #79 in Cup was from 2022 where Team Stange Racing was going to field a part-time entry for Tarso Marques, but it never came to fulfillment.

Yeah can't find anything. Can't believe I lost the cert. The guy it came from in a trade doesn't know.

About to fire up a reddit thread. As I collector of all sorts of shtt, usually 5-10 mins esp with AI, I could find something on the item. This one seems random. A poor signature doesn't help.
