About this Custom Number paint

Richard Petty - 1979 - 75 Years: The Champions Richard Petty captured his seventh and final Winston Cup championship in 1979. Petty had struggled in prior years as his loyalty to Chrysler left him with increasingly uncompetitive cars. A switch to Chevrolets late in the winless 1978 season paid off, as the veteran driver found his groove again the following year. For 1979, Petty piloted an Oldsmobile to victory in a dramatic Daytona 500 finish that saw Cale Yarborough and Donnie Allison take each other out for the win on the last lap. Petty captured four more wins in Chevrolets on the season and narrowly edged Darrell Waltrip to win the crown. This paint represents the 43 STP Chevrolet as it raced with Monte Carlo bodywork during the majority of races that season. The 75 Years project is a series of paints dedicated to the history of NASCAR racing. Follow me for updates: twitter.com/iam27paul
