ZL1 #8 - Dale Jr's

I'm at City Chevy getting the vert worked on and noticed a Black ZL1 in the showroom. Tires were already a bit worn, didn't look perfectly new so took a closer look, it's VIN #0008. Started asking the sales manager about it, and no it's not for sale... it's Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s.

Took a couple bad cell phone pics, but here you go:

...but he is a guy with enough connections to get the exact VIN # he wanted.

Also worth noting, City Chevy is Rick Hendrick's flagship dealership... they are the ones that got allocations for #1-3, 8 and #69 as well.

Don't the Earnhardts also own several GM dealerships? I assume that Jr and mom are still battling?

I believe Teresa has control of the dealerships and yes, they are still feuding. I bet she wishes she would have given Jr controlling interest in DEI now that Ganassi basically owns and runs it after it was about to go belly up after Jr left.

Nice pics from the OP!

He should have gotten #3 in that color! Still cool though.
