Gordon collected three championships (1995, 1997, 1998) and 52 wins with this look on his No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet. The illustrious scheme first hit the track for the 1992 season finale at Atlanta Motor Speedway in Gordon’s first Cup Series race, which also served as seven-time champion Richard Petty’s last.
