For the 2013 season, #48-Jimmie Johnsons 12th in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, the five-time champion once again climbs behind the wheel of the #48 Lowes and Kobalt Tools Chevrolets. The primary paint scheme for the year mimics last years sleek, two-color schemes, which marked the first major redesign of the primary paint scheme for the #48 car since Lowes began its relationship with Johnson. The schemes are a tribute to the American muscle car, including several that will feature some of Chevrolets classic colors at select races throughout the year. The first of these combinations debuts at the opening race of the season, the Sprint Unlimited. Appropriately, the #48 Lowes machine features the classis Chevrolet color ‘Daytona Yellow.” The color was used by the automaker on its Camaro and Corvette models in 1969 and 1970.(HMS/Team Lowes), see images of the yellow scheme on my #48 Team Schemes page .
