Did Dale Earnhardt Sr. ever drive a number 8 Chevy Nova that had the same colors as his number 3 GM Goodwrench

Answer 1

No, but drove a number 8

Answer 2

Yes it was silver and black with red tips, it was a Nova #8.

Answer 3

he drove a late modale #8  car and his dad drove a #8  he never really did drive one in NASCAR competition though

Answer 4

Don't think it was a Nova, but I have a photo of a "late model" style car from 1987 that has GM Goodwrench sponsorship, and a number 8 in the same font as Dale's Cup car.  Car was on display at the grand opening of Dale Earnhardt Chevrolet in Conover, NC, October 1987.  Not sure if Dale ever drove it, though.
