Bill Elliott 27 Appraisal

McDonald's Bill Elliott #27 Die-Cast NASCAR Toy Car

This is a small-scale die-cast replica of a Bill Elliott #27 NASCAR stock car, produced as a promotional item for McDonald's. The vehicle features a bright red primary color scheme constructed from a metal body and plastic chassis parts. The top surfaces prominently display the iconic McDonald's 'Golden Arches' logo in yellow on the hood, while the roof features a large, bold yellow number '27'. The windows are rendered in a solid, opaque light blue plastic, obscuring internal details. This specific model likely dates to the mid-1990s (circa 1995-1996) corresponding to Elliott's time driving the #27 Ford Thunderbird under McDonald's sponsorship. The construction quality is typical of mass-produced promotional toys, intended for play or as low-cost collectibles. Condition-wise, the car shows minor signs of shelf wear and typical play-related micro-scratches on the red paint and yellow decals, but the graphics remain vibrant and legible without significant chipping or fading. The decals appear to be heat-pressed or tampo-printed directly onto the surface.
