Read More The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Leaderboard-The Grand FinaleBy David G. Firestone Sterling Marlin returns in 1999, driving his Coors Light Chevy Monte Carlo, for our final paint scheme of 2016. Who in the world designed this car, and how drunk were they? I’d really like to know. Coors Light was using the all-silver can design in 1999, so why not paint the […]

Read More The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Leaderboard-ToyotaBy David G. Firestone Robert Pressley is back with his 1997 Jasper Engines Ford Thunderbird. This requires a bit of an explanation.

Firestone For the next installment of The Paint Scheme Leaderboard, The Executive Paint Scheme Ranking Committee has ranked the schemes of the Ford teams this year.

Read More The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Leaderboard-FordBy David G. Firestone Rick Mast firing along in his Remington Arms Ford Taurus in 1998. Yellow, black, and red is a good color scheme, and the design looks really good. The yellow front, and diagonal strlipes to a red stripe, and a black rear, with a red stripe across the bottom works very well. […]

Read More The Driver Suit Blog-Paint Scheme Leaderboard-ChevroletBy David G. Firestone Phil Barkdoll’s 1998 X1R/Square D Chevy Monte Carlo is our subject this week. Yellow, black, and red is a good color scheme, but the design is…weird. The curves look out of place, and the blue Square D lettering looks odd on the yellow background.
