Bill Elliott drove the #9 coors car, it seems to me that that was in the mid to late 80's. Coors has been a long time sponsor and a few other drivers may have piloted cars with their name on it in that time frame.
Bill actually drove the Melling owned Coors Light car for 1 season only and that was 1991. He only got 1 win (Pepsi 400 at Daytona) and it was his last year driving for Melling. The next time Bill was in a Coors car was in 2005 when he drove the #39 Coors Dodge Charger in a paint scheme similar to his old red #9 Coors T-Birds of the 1980's
