Dracula's Dragster (466-98) Model Kit AFA 80+ ** POP 1, Highest Grade ** (Aurora, 1964). A wild fusion of classic horror and mid-century hot rod culture, Aurora's Dracula's Dragster is one of the most imaginative and sought-after entries in the short-lived Monster Hot Rods series of the early 1960s. Released in 1964 at the height of Aurora's monster model kit popularity, this surreal mashup reimagines the Prince of Darkness behind the wheel of a custom coffin dragster-complete with fanged radiator grille, bat hood ornament, and over-the-top monster mayhem. This example has been graded AFA 80+ NM and stands as the only known specimen at this grade, with none higher, making it the highest graded population example on record. With its vivid box art, bizarre concept, and crossover appeal to both monster fans and hot rod collectors, the Dracula's Dragster has become one of the most desirable Aurora kits ever produced. Rarely offered in any condition, let alone factory sealed and graded, this is a museum-quality artifact from the golden age of monster mania. A true grail for Aurora collectors and a defining relic of 1960s monster culture.
