Prototype
You are looking at a Dale Earnhardt Jr. car that was NEVER APPROVED FOR PRODUCTION. Only prototypes exist. This is one of them!
This 1999 Dale Jr. standard ARC CWB Prototype is guaranteed to be authentic. RCCA prototype banks are identified by a "0000" in the rear window. However, this car has nothing in the rear window. Therefore, it is obvious that this is not a RCCA Club Car Bank. Well, could it be just a standard ARC CWB? No. The only standard ARC bank that Action made in 1999 with the Last Lap paint scheme has BLACK windows. What about the SelectNet bank? It has clear windows. Yes, it does. But, as you know, the SelectNet banks all come with GRAY chassis. As you can see in the photo below, this CWB has a black chassis. Again, the authenticity of this car is guaranteed. We sent this car's sister (a 1999 Bud standard ARC CWB without chassis numbers) down to Action in Phoenix to verify that it was indeed a prototype; They confirmed that it was indeed authentic.
This is the highly-desireable ACDelco car that Junior dorve to his second straight Busch Championship. It has the special Colorchrome finish to commemorate the car that Junior drove in the last race of the season.
