About this Custom Number paint

Bobby Labonte won the 1991 Busch Grand National championship and was looking to repeat for 1992. The team kept most everything in place, save for the branding on car 44; Oldsmobiles gave way to Chevrolets and Penrose switched from Fire Cracker branding on the car to the Slim Jim brand. Labonte was sitting on two wins on the season going into the finale at Hickory and needed to make up 33 points on Joe Nemechek. Labonte dominated the race as Nemechek struggled. But Nemechek wasn’t to be denied and brought a half-destroyed Chevrolet up to sixth place, enough to capture the championship by just three points. Labonte moved up to Winston Cup for 1993 with Bill Davis and turned the Slim Jim ride over to David Green. This paint represents the 1992 car. The Grand National Legends project is a series of paints dedicated to the most significant Busch Series drivers and cars of the 1990s. Part 2 of the series covers the years 1990 through 1994.
