Jim Yates McDonald’s Pontiac Firebird Pro Stock 1:24 Action ARC NHRA Diecast 1997

Jim Yates was one of the toughest competitors of the Pro Stock era, and his bright red-and-yellow McDonald’s Pontiac Firebird became one of the most recognizable NHRA Pro Stock cars of the late 1990s. This 1997 Jim Yates McDonald’s Pontiac Firebird Pro Stock diecast by Action / Lionel ARC captures a legendary period in NHRA drag racing when factory-backed Pro Stock competition was at its peak.

Finished in the iconic McDonald’s livery, this detailed 1:24 scale collectible showcases the aggressive styling and engineering that made Pro Stock one of the most competitive classes in motorsports. From the removable front clip exposing the detailed engine bay to the accurate sponsor graphics and race-ready stance, this model perfectly represents the look of Yates’ championship-caliber Firebird.

Jim Yates earned a reputation as one of the most respected drivers in NHRA history, collecting multiple Pro Stock championships and battling some of the biggest names the sport has ever seen. His McDonald’s-backed Pontiac remains one of the standout cars from the golden era of Pro Stock racing.

Produced by Action Racing Collectables / Lionel ARC, this limited-edition release is becoming increasingly difficult to find, especially in clean pre-owned condition with the original collector box included.

Limited to only 3,500 pieces produced, these late-90s NHRA diecasts continue gaining popularity with collectors every year as surviving examples become harder to locate.

Whether you collect NHRA Pro Stock legends, Pontiac racing memorabilia, or iconic sponsor liveries from the 1990s, this Jim Yates McDonald’s Firebird is a standout addition to any diecast collection.

At Revelry1, we love preserving the machines and drivers that helped build the golden era of NHRA drag racing — and few Pro Stock combinations are remembered quite like Jim Yates and the McDonald’s Firebird.
