Who were all of dale Earnhardt's crew chiefs over his entire career?
Not sure about his partial schedules in 1975-1978, as there is very little information about crew chiefs for those years, but his full-time crew chiefs were (year:race #):
Jake Elder, 1979:01-1980:13
Doug Richert, 1980:14-1981:04
Dale Inman, 1981:05-1981:20
Kirk Shelmerdine, 1981:21-1981:31, 1984:01-1992:29
Bud Moore(?), 1982:01-1983:30
Andy Petree, 1993:01-1995:31
David Smith, 1996:01-1996:31
Larry McReynolds, 1997:01-1998:13
Kevin Hamlin 1998:14-2001:01
He drove for Bud Moore in 1982 and 1983, and Bud Moore used to be crew chief for his own cars, but I'm not positive Moore was the crew chief for Earnhardt (it's possible by then he had hired some other crew chief to replace himself.)

If the driver did not win a race, they will have to finish in first or second place in the Sprint Showdown, which is held just before the All-Star event. The last way, is a fan vote. This vote starts weeks before the event and the winner is revealed at the end of pre-race show.

Where can you buy a NASCAR Series truck?
The teams are always selling used race cars for use in lower NASCAR racing classes. If you want something more new, without shelling out all that dough for a shop, equiptment, research, and so on, most of the teams would be happy to take care of your needs, provided, you have the cash, and the talent to pilot it. I think Hendrick still offers a rental program, where, he will rent you a car that will more than qualify, and, I think he will even rent you a team to pit it, and a tuner to fine tune it. That would be my choice. A proven winner, and you return it until the next race. What more could any racer want?!
