I've been looking for nascar pics of this generation. I'd love to paint Ethel up like that. Need some inspiration

Re: cool picture
I believe Bobbi Allison won the championship in a Chevelle. I also read this was the last car that John Deloreon had direct input on the design and wanted it to handle really good. Hence the coil spring rear suspension as opposed to leaf springs.

Sadly Allison was close & very close but here's a little bit of Nascar history
Winston Cup our gen. cars
1973 Benny Parsons Chevrolet Chevelle
1974 Richard Petty (Yea!) Dodge Charger (Boo!)
1975 Richard Petty " " "
1976 Cale Yarborough Chevrolet Chevelle
1977 Cale Yarborough Chevrolet Malibu
1978 Cale Yarborough Olds Cutlass (A body I think though)
Bobby Allison won his only cup in 1983 in a Buick Regal.
Regals also took 81 & 82- Darrell "Cartrip" Waltrip
All these years were won w/ Monte Carlos
79 Petty
80 Dale Sr
84 Terry labonte
85 Waltrip
86 Dale Sr
87 Dale Sr
These guys were the best of the best.

Re: cool picture
When racing was racing! I think in the late 70's though they used the Monte's for short tracks and the Chevelles/Malibu's for speedways. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: cool picture
Knew the Gen 3 Chevelles won some championships, I just had the years and driver wrong.
I do like Petty and Dodge's though. Mopar is my biggest if not first automotive love
