History

The chasis was purchased by Hendricks in the late '80s as a test bed for road racing. The first iteration of the car was as the Babe Ruth car for Jeff Gordon. It was reliveried as the #94 Sunoco car and driven at Watkins Glen by Terry Labonte in 1991 where he took first place. The car was then used for "VIP" rides before falling into private ownership. I purchased the car in January of 2005 to race this season with NASA. Frame has no number, and unfortunately the homoligation plaque has long been lost.
