PPI Motorsports, the team that ran this car, closed its doors in 2007, but it's the team that got Ricky Craven his only Cup wins. Those wins came in the #32 Tide Pontiac/Ford. They formed a partnership with Michael Waltrip Racing, and then got liquidated. Let's assume that in an alternate universe, MWR ran Chevrolet (instead of Toyota) in 2007. Perhaps this is what the #32 Tide car would look like had it been brought back. Fitting that the Impala came into Cup in 2007 (information acquired from Wikipedia). This is also done under the scenario that Ricky Craven was never released from PPI, so this is technically a Ricky Craven fantasy paint. Random, huh?

Let me take a moment to explain the color choices for this scheme. Orange was considered, but a red that looks like orange felt like it would mix in better. I still have the actual work so it would not be a problem for me to make things even more orange-y if necessary. However, I feel the car looks very good as it is.
