It reminds me of an Easter egg.

 

[AdoubleU24]

I definitely think it's too blue in the rendering, but the actual photo on page 3 where they showed a close up of the bumper makes me like it a lot, it will be the exact same color as Bill's in reality.

Looks like something they would drive

 

[DanicaFreak]

darnit I want to see the 10 throwback!

 

[MRM]

General Motors in their slide to complete dumbassery put that turbo motor in a Firebird. The stupid part? they only made 1500. Couldn't get one, all spoken for. That should have been their first sign.

It was meant to be a limited edition. They're pretty easy to get now if you're willing to pay up for it.

I know it's supposed to be a Bill Elliott throwback, but it reminds me more of Jimmy Means' Alka-Seltzer car...

She should run Derrike Cope's Purolator scheme, that'd be pretty cool.

I've got to say I completely disagree. Bill's ride looks sweeet! Yeah, sweet with 3 e's.

Terry LeBonte's car that A.J. is copying, The Monte was a beautiful race car

Bill right after a Said Head gathering

 

[rocket dawg]

The King's 200th win...

That car's paint scheme represents the kings last ride in 1992 , one of the best looking cars of all time AND with the original sponsor STP.....VERY KEWL.

Those cars in the mid to late 80s were the best that NASCAR has ever had.

It would have looked better if it were red with a white stripe.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Every time they go to Darlington, I get excited for Chase.

This, and the Sprint Showdown restart in Charlotte last year is why I haven't given up all hope for him on restarts yet lol

He had some rough restarts his rookie season & earlier this season that probably cost him some wins. Made me think that maybe it wasnt all Gordon's fault on the restarts.

 

[Simple Fan]

Not sure what the 18 has planned but him being a big Days of Thunder fan I'd like to see him run a Russ Wheeler paint scheme.

That would be a pretty neat paint scheme.

Put it in victory lane Byron.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Says a lot about what Mr. H thinks of the kid.

Talk about hair raising, emotions, and what could have been...

 

[Clutch]

This is awesome: (Penske missed out on this one)

Running silver wheels I take it?

IIRC, Rick thought the same of casey mears and it was a big reason casey overstayed his welcome.

When personal emotion gets involved in the business side, irrational costly decisions are made.

Take all that crap off the front, and hangy stuff off of the sides and ya got it.

 

[JGR_20]

The number could be done better as well. Good idea but it looks like they tried to "modernize" that scheme. Nice try but not feeling it.

 

[StandOnIt]

Kulwicki has that rear spoiler laid back for sure for Daytona

 

[Bowtie3]

Looks like LFR and Front Row had the same idea. Had being the key word.
