Throwback Thursday-Hut Stricklin-1990

By David G. Firestone

Mike Alexander getting ready to run in his 1990 Raybestos Buick.

The red on this car looks odd. It’s a bit to light to be red, but too dark to be pink. The scheme as a whole looks good, but I can’t get past that shade of red. Also, I hate that black outline on the door numbers, and I think they would look better without it. I’m also wondering what is going on with the silver on the headlights going down the side. It doesn’t look bad, it looks odd though. Like I said, it’s a good scheme, but it just has a few oddities.

I'm just a normal guy who collects race-worn driver suits, helmets, sheet metal, and other race-worn items. I will use this blog to help collectors, and race fans alike understand the various aspects of driver suits and helmets, and commentate on paint schemes.
