HELP! Nascar experts plz

[Paolo-LoveGT40 Modelworks]

Ciao guys,
I need a little help from who is a nascar expert (I am absolutely not. As Homer Simpson I only like the colors on theme).
A friend of mine asked me year and driver of those 2 cars (one is a Ford Taurus and the other is a Chevy Montecarlo).
Number 4 Kodak and no. 26 cheerios.
Think the montecarlo is middle 90s...and the taurus some years later (wasnt the model racing after the Thunderbird?).

I only can read the name of the taurus no26 (Johnny benson) but on the no4 I only can read something as Syterling M..

aiuto guys.. need at last the year of those ones..

Not sure of the year but Sterling Martin is the name on the Chevy.

Hey Paulo.....

No 4 Chevy Monte Carlo - Sterlin Marlin - 1997

No 26 Ford Taurus Johnny Benson - 1998

By the way, Bill France died today. Y'all may not be a fan of NASCAR or the way the "family" ran it, but you've got to admit - he was extraordinarily successful.

My visits to Talladega when I lived in Alabama, will always be strong in my memories for the sheer spectacle of NASCAR high speed ovals....and if you like the sound of unfettered American V8 muscle.......well, look no further.

RIP Bill.

Thank u guys...too useful this for me.

Talladega is another magic place where I hope to go..sometimes in this life (wasnt the place where they had to use engine limits cause too high speed?)

The show provided by nascars is anyway incredible, maybe even more than the race itself,and a lot of true american pilots there (is right mostly south states love the nascar serie?).

Since next year they will have also jacques Villeneuve racing
