LAS VEGAS, Dec. 2 (UPI) -- A postseason disappearance made Dale Earnhardt Jr. invisible, but his car's new paint scheme is anything but hidden.
On Wednesday, Earnhardt Jr. revealed the No. 88 Axalta Chevrolet SS in Las Vegas at The Cromwell.
Axalta moves its sponsorship from Jeff Gordon to Earnhardt Jr. for the 2016 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season.
Axalta extended its partnership with Hendrick Motorsports to 2018, while it expanded its number of races from 10 to 13, according to NASCAR.com.
