Can some one tell me the difference between the 89/87 Oldsmobile and the 88/92 Oldsmobile? The only thing I can see is the body style, is there more?
I want to build the #94 Sunco gas car, but I think I used the wrong year of car, I think I used the 86/87 body style.
Thanks |

There used to be a hardback book/magazine that would come out at the end of the year recapping the seasons action. If you can find one for that year it would be helpful.
A few of that body style that comes to mind are:
Terry Labonte 44 Piedmont Airlines
Cale Yarborough Hardee's #29
Lake Speed's Wynns/K-Mart car
The Kodak car 4, might have been Rick Wilson
I think Buddy Baker in the Crisco used that body
There were some BGN cars, but they had V-6 engines at that time |

Dale Jarrett ran the 1988 Hardee's scheme on an 87 Delta at the first Richmond race of 88. I know decals are made but I cannot remember who made them....maybe MPR |

Actually, it was ran with Sterlin Marlin in 1988 at Calder Park for the special Australian race. Granted this wasn't part of the actual season, but it is the 1988 scheme on the 1987 body. |
