So there are a couple of things going on here...I was
listening to a Speedway Legends segment with Bobby Allison the
other day and he spent a significant amount of time talking
about the AMC Matador he drove for Roger Penske in the 70's.
Not being familiar with the car, I did a little research. It
turns out that he drove this scheme (along with
Mark Donohue) in 1974, and then again in 1975 with
the number 16 (and again in 1977 driving for himself back with
the number 12). This scheme represents the scheme of Penske's
first venture into NASCAR. Also, I
discovered that 2016 is the 50th anniversary of Penske in
motorsports, so I decided I had to do a little tribute, hence
the Team Penske logos front and back and Penske 50 logo on the
b-pillars. I put the scheme on a Dodge because AMC was bought
out by Chrysler, and Chrysler is obviously affiliated with
Dodge. I didn't want to put AMC Matador all over the car like
the original but I subtly put AMC logos on the b-pillars and
driver's suit. I hope it makes sense to everybody. Credits:

and it's for BR15 - it doesn't fit right on the BR13 Dodge),
