Earnhardt Aero Monte Carlo Question

[Michael in Illinois]

Looking to build Earnhardts Aero Monte Carlo SS from 1987. What color would the interior as well as the chassis be. I don't know how the kit decals have held up, so I'll be looking for some after market ones. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Mike's has a set by Powerslide, their nice!

I just built one a couple weeks ago.  (It's here somewhere...)  The interior and chassis are blue like the rear of the exterior.

The color is blue.  At the end of 87 the interior of one was his red/orange color.  I suppose they were getting ready for the 88 season.

Late 87 and 88 were Chevy engine red....which has a lot of orange. Mike's decals are the but on the market right now of a #3 car. Here is my 88...

Have a pic with the red chassis? I knew the Goodwrench preview car had a red chassis. Is that the one you speak of or did a Wrangler car have a red chassis?

I`m looking for it because I thought this would come up.  I have not made it to my storage unit to look yet, but I`m looking.  Brandon, It may be the Goodwrench car before the outside was changed to the 1988 car.

Dave your 1988 car is great, nice job.
