Got the '70 400 and 455 adhesive decals in - they look really good! I have a post in the for sale section for anyone interested.
Also kicked out the '64-'67 fan guard decals. I saw a '66 at Cars and Coffee today with the existing repro that has the wrong arrow on it all buckled up because it's too big. It's appalling how bad those are! I was doing those on clear decal paper with two passes of white ink, but I may switch to white decal paper since it's slightly more opaque. The only reason for the clear decal paper is if folks want that little bit of clear edge the factory left on them. It takes a lot more time and effort on my part to do that and I'd honestly rather have a more opaque decal. I got the '68 GTO A/C and big car tire pressure decals done too. It was nice to have a local reference for that one Pic of my prototype on next to my factory example below. I had a little issue with the cut registration on the first batch but got that fixed.It's soooo nice just being able to produce this stuff on my own but I'm still tweaking with the printer settings to get the best results. The black emissions waterslides are the trickiest so far. I dusted off our Cricut and have been cutting the decals out with it. It saves a ton of time and the results are way cleaner than me with an x-acto knife. The fan guard and core support on my '68 are no stranger to water slides and emissions decals at this point. Everything except the new tire pressure decals are up on the Etsy store.
