Default Not contemporary metal shaping, but I am pumped again!

I was notified earlier this morning that Jeffry Earnhardt will be using my old paint scheme for this weekends 'throwback' race at the Darlington superspeedway, just down the road here in south Carolina. This is the second year in a row that my original Dale Earnhardt, Sr. paint scheme has been selected. Dale Jr. and Jeff Burton were discussing the reason that the numbers were done the way that they were, and I don't want to tell them that it was because I did not get the car done in time to arrange for a sign painter, so I used two different size paint and storage can and assorted width tape to paint them on myself. The pictures below are of the original paint scheme, last year at Darlington and this years presentation. I actually did a lot of metal work on these cars back in that day, but not in the way that I have been exposed to since joining this site.
