They ain't fancy but Swindell's Channellock blue car and Kinser's Quacker State all-geen car are 1 and 2 in my book, not yet written. Schatz' redish-orange STP car was a special Knoxville car, it too was a great look but a one-off job. Can't forget Stevie Smith's all black cars especially the Ingersoll-Rand car. Guess I like "plain" paint jobs/wraps.

Any car with red/white scheme and gold numbers. Another one I really like is Shane Golobic's number 22 sprint car, that's probably my favorite active car.

You Knoxville guys will have to help me out here.....there was a blue frame, white body #2 that was a Lone Star Racing labeled car. Pre down tubes. I saw it at Knoxville in the early 80s.
I think Dave Blaney drove it. Beautiful car....simple but beautiful.
Also, I always loved Clyde Lamar's 3c Tri C cars.
|
For the Lone Star sprinter, see page 78 of the August 2017 SprintCar & Midget magazine. There is a photo of Blaney racing with Steve Kinser in the Gambler house car.

Let me start by saying you can call me a lot of things but you definitely can't call me a Sammy Swindell fan...I respect the hell outta him for his contributions to the sport and his vast knowledge, wisdom and ingenuity in the sport but I just don't like him. That being said hands down in my 30 plus years as a fan of sprints slinging dirt, in my opinion, the most beautiful, badass one of them all to grace the clay is the shiny black, chromed out, gold leaf lettered TMC #1 of the Slammer himself. Second on my list would be my heroes beautifil white 8D of Doug Wolfgang in 1989, the infamous HUD car owned my Danny Peace and wrenched by Deuce. Both these cars are already listed in this thread, I know. I also see a trend in this thread in that several times, my post included, simplicity is notated as being one of the things the poster liked most about the cars they listed. Seems to me some of the newer graphic designers would take note that sometimes simple is better than what graces wing panels so often nowadays. I'll add one more...not a big name but did turn a few heads at the Marion County oval in the late 80's and early 90's...Tonight We Ride with Fran Bruns (Bonzai's big brother) in the Rawhide Racing 18. I grew up idolizing these guys and their red and white 18 was always a good lookin ride!

The Volcano Joe's #2
Currently im a fan of Tim Shaffer's 49x

Kemenahs blue/orange 15 from a couple years back and the yellow Casey Luna Ford w/Vivarin of Dave Blaney. Not a huge fan of white racecars, but I always thought the White/Crimson Dr Pepper ride of Herreras always looked good on track.

It would be cool to see one with the paint that changes colors as you see it at different angles.

Black (or silver) Zemco #1
Leon Wintermeyer #1W (Kauffman, K. Jacobs, Shaffer, R. Wolfe although Randy's was a #5W I think)
Lucas Wolfe's current PBR 360 #5W
Hooters #1 of S. Swindell
Randy Wolfe's Keen Transport #5W from the 1980s (awesome top wing)
Jac Haudenschild/Elden #22 (some of those paint schemes were cool)
I'm sure I'm missing some, but these came quickly to mind.

Too many to pick. I guess this would be a sampling from 01-03.
