Well, it's the late '60s-late '80s Junie Donlavey NASCAR team colors, when they were sponsored by Truxmore. Several BIG names in racing drove that car, the #90.

I had to do a double-take on what you wrote. "Tomata"? Did you mean "tomato"? Starsky & Hutch's car was a '75 Gran Torino - yes, it was "tomato red". And dude's *Camaro* is indeed in Baldwin-Motion colors; I have the AMT plastic model kit.
