Slip's Racing Designs #5 Honey Frosted Mini-Wheats Monte Carlo (SRD126 - A5 w/NEON)

Terry Labonte showed up to the 2001 Pepsi 400 @Michigan with this eye-catching one-off paint scheme. The car was coated in the same Dupont Chromalusion paint that debuted on the #24 at the 1998 Winston night race and featured a special promotion for Honey Frosted Mini-Wheats. Very little was seen of this car over the course of the race due to a poor starting position and bad luck throughout the day - which is a shame. The Meijer decals are in reference to the grocery store chain who were an associate sponsor of this particular race. This was an interesting decal set to pull together owing to the lack of reference material - took a bit of searching to the locate the correct graphic of the Mini-Wheat character on the sides!

This standard A5 sheet is great for the casual model builder and will come with a sheet of supplemental Neon overlays but is also available as a larger A4 sheet which includes additional white underlays to help brighten the decals (sheet SRD104). This sheet also includes some additional decals like the seatbelts, seat manufacturer, fire extinguisher, gauges, dash plaque and tire lettering.

I'd recommend either painting this body a rose gold, or for a more authentic color, some form of Red/Magenta - Gold color shift paint. My build used automotive paint - House of Kolor KF05 - but I know that isn't always easy to locate.
