Dale Earnhardt IROC

Im sure you are all familiar with the new Monte CArlo SS Dale Earnhardt Intimidator Edition. Its got the black and silver with red badge scheme going on. Has anybody done a Dale Earnhardt appearence scheme for an IROC similiar to that of the Monte Carlo. Ill post a pic if I find one right now. I was thinking about doing it to mine, but would like to see how it would look. what what you guys think. Thanks guys.

I know I saw some pictures of them on here just recently and the two cars I saw were both all red.

Here's a couple I pulled up from a picture search, first is a die-cast model that looks like the second one in the Dale Earnhardt Museum.

Just a few select LS1 Camaro's. Some of them, Dale even autographed the speedo... but he autographed only like 25 of'em and only like 50 were made or something.

Yeah, it's pretty sweet looking down on your air breather from the top of the hood like that.

I'd say thats about as close as your gonna get without putting on the red emblems and/or text. Looks good to me.

Maroon88iroc, I pulled those pictures off of the website for the museum. I can't remember, did you make a post about visiting there? If so then I used your link.....so thanks.

yeah thats a nice one man. I really like what you did with it. You should add the earnhardt "3" and the intimidator decals, and your set.
