I owned a Talledega for quite some time, and I can assure you that it was NOT a 'stock' car'! lots of hand made one off parts with a run barely long enough to homologate for the good ole' boys. The front bumper got tweaked once and I had to spend a crazy amount to get one made. They were 'recrafted' rear bumpers, by the way.
Point is, these cars haven't been anywhere near 'stock' since way before NASCAR left the beach!

Nobody expects pure stock in a race car. But how about a single part, however tiny, that was EVER in a Ford, Dodge, GM, or Toyota factory.

The only part that comes from the "factory" is the check.
