I thought Tom Hoover's 1990-ish "Showtime" neon-colored car was an eye-catcher. And also when Purdomme switched to dragster they had those (then-special) Skoal graphics that reflected light or whatever you call it... the lettering appeared to glow in the dark & almost looked 3-d when you caught it just right and it really looks cool on a flash camera.
And that Kalitta West Koast Kustoms MTV Pimp My Ride one was freaky.

Pretty much all the Oakly cars. I also always liked the War Eagle paint jobs & ALWAYS Jungle Jims.

A few of my favs...
All of the Oakley Funnies, esp. Scotty's rides, I loved Scott Kalitta's Mac Tools/Jesse James Black Widow too. BTW, I loved Gary's Snow Camo ride too, I know most 'maters didn't, but that car was sweet.
I like some of Whit Bazemores Matco Tools cars too. The white one, blue, and purple.
Scott Geoffrion's Escort as well.
Mike Ashley's Pro Mod Mustang... Eleanor. I loved Troy's too, but maybe more so because of the car, than the familiar Jeg's paint.
The "Croc Car" is hard to beat too, that's one mean looking ride!
Currently Vandergriff's UPS dragster is my fav rail, in term of looks.

OK, I started the thread, but can't seem to get the picture I have of this great car to post for me. So here's a link to the car I feel has the best paint job.

I have loved all of Scotty's cars, even his Pro Mod's paint could stop traffic.
I am by no means a wrasslin' fan, but I liked most of Tolliver and Epler's WWF cars. Tolliver and Creasy's Mad Magazine cars looked pretty good too, particularly the Spy vs Spy cars.
John Force has had many good looking race cars, but the 1996 Driver of the Year car was pretty sweet.
I liked Mike Dunn's Yankees dragsters, the long pinstripes looked good.
I liked WJ's white 25th anniversay Trans-Am.
V Gaines always had wild paint.
