Mostly inspired by the great work @Riviera71 and @Palmita_06 have been doing filling in the gaps for 2001 and 2007 cars respectively, I want to start painting some cars that have been missing for a long time. But as the 2001 thread here and searches of 2007 cars have shown me, there's a lot of cars that I have almost zero memory of even though I watched all of these races. So, basically what I'm asking is what missing cars from the mid-2000s do you guys want to see painted? I can't promise I'll paint every car but I'm willing to paint almost anything from the 2002-2008 era that isn't a super complicated flame design (unless there's a base for it).

If this looks familiar, I did make a Reddit post about this project the other day but I feel like it might get more traction here. Also, I'm not sure if this is exactly the right section as I'm mostly looking for cars to paint (If anyone has any of these, I'll definitely take them though) but feel free to let me know if there's a better section for this thread.

I think these are the 2 2005 cars you're looking for (atleast they have Scooby and Madagascar on them :p)

It seems to be mostly cars from 2007 you're looking for, have you looked at what thunder98 has saved away? https://www.mediafire.com/thunder98files#4amjj6sk5ze3k
might be some here too https://allnr2003.godaddysites.com/
I have the 2007 zip from thunder98 (I think I got it there, what I have says 399MB and on mediafire his says 390MB) but I haven't looked through it. It's late friday night here and I'm finishing up yet another 2001 Stacy Compton car, watching a movie and drinking beer. Might have a look tomorrow if I have the time.

You didn't list any 2002 cars but atleast for now I wouldn't think about those, if you look at page 2 in this subforum someone else is already working on remaining 2002 cars :)

NO WAY! I've been looking for that 18 car for ages, thank you for those!

For the 2007 cars, I want to say I have all of the cars from those sets. Right now, I'm sitting at 556 cars for 2007 and I think that's a combination of mostly those 2 and what I found on the NR2K3tracks forum.

Once again, thank you so much for the help!

Just updated the list a bit and added a handful of cars after some more research. Feel free to give car suggestions or let me know if any of these cars actually have been made before.

I know I had the SpongeBob SquarePants #5 from 2004 a long time ago. The #22 Zellers scheme was done if that was the Montreal car. I'll see what I can do about finding some of these. Ik right now I'm working with @Palmita_06 on trying to knock out some 2010 stuff.

Thanks for anything you can find. Looking forward to those 2010 cars too, your cars are always great!

That really means a lot to me so thank you. I definitely miss painting right now since I only have my phone. But hopefully once I can get a computer again I'll be back to painting full on. I think my next big project for myself is actually re mastering my Gen6BR15 set I did a long time ago. I definitely really want to do that again.

Here are a couple of the #22 2005 trucks (army and sun trust) and a couple of 2003 #30 AOL cars. Not sure if these are the right ones or if there are alternate versions of them?
(Neither of them is my work)

Thank you for those, the Lester trucks are exactly the ones I was looking for. The #30 on my list is a bit of a weird case. The specific version only ran in the Daytona 500 and didn't run any of the other events that week, or any of the races afterward from what I've seen. I'm not sure if AOL decided their broadband branding needed to be more prominent after their car got the pole or they always had a plan to change the logos on race day.
