About this paint

A late friend will be honored by the newly released paint scheme on Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s No. 88 Chevy for the 2016 NASCAR season. The side panels of Earnhardt’s No. 88 Chevy will be painted gray – a nod to the car known as the “Gray Ghost” once driven by Buddy Baker. Baker, who died in August, won the 1980 Daytona 500 in an Oldsmobile painted gray, silver and black – hence its nickname. “It’s my all-time favorite paint scheme,” Earnhardt said recently at his Hendrick Motorsports shop. “So we’ve put a touch of the ‘Gray Ghost,’ on this car. With Buddy’s passing, it made me want to do it even more, to acknowledge him and what he’s done. “It turned out to be a good-looking car. It looks good on paper, but you never know until it’s on the track.”
