Default New updates on my car

It's been a while since I posted. Usually check out the site when I'm waiting at the airport for the next ride across the country. I finally got my car in for graphics and can't be happier. This is the 2001 "Bud shootout" car and Dale's last paint scheme.

Wow, that looks really nice! I bet that's a super tedious job getting all of those positioned correctly.

I don't follow Nascar at all, but I'm surprised to see Oreo paying for such a huge sponsorship spot.

I didn't put any on for that exact reason, i was only charged $500 for all the decals made and installed. This was done after the 2001 "Bud Shootout" car that Dale used for qualifying for the Daytona 500.
It wasn't used during the 500 , so it is technically the last paint scheme he finished a race driving. I know that "Dale Jr" also used a similar Oreo car a year later.

Everything looks great. I admit, kinda weird seeing blue bordering the number 3 instead of red. But I know that is part of the decals you had copied (I think you used a model car to mimic). Came out very nice!

Yes , to my knowledge this was the only time there was blue surrounding the #3 and had white skirts instead of the usual silver. Yes I did use the diecast car to create the scheme. I also need to thank (Dean) driver#3 for sending me multiple pictures of the car. To my knowledge it is only missing one sticker (Hasbro) which I will also add in the future.
