Ok thanks.
Along the same note, what would the trunk mount spoiler have cost? ....
And a 428 royal bobcat engine swap?

Mike will have all the option costs, but you better talk with him first, I know he will not add high cost options that make the car jump in value like the Judge option or RA4 since it could be used to misrepresent the car's true value during a sale. He can speak for himself when you contact him!

Probably do one myself then. This car is obviously not a stock recreation when one looks at it a little closer.

I don't view a invoice sticker on the same level as a vin number anyway.

The spoiler was never offered as an option so there is no official price for it.

TJ can make one from a good online image, then make it blank, or probably print anything you want on it. Then if you want to make it sticky, Timmie can take that image & make it.

We just found lots of online images, and Mike Noun's site for these.

Here's the one that appears to be correct.

J.C., I can do a custom one for you. I've done a few custom ones for drag cars. A reproduction window sticker would never be used to document a car. I don't age them or anything like that.

Creating one isn't as easy as you would think. Getting the correct line spacing, correct font, character spacing, and option code formatting (based on plant) is very involved and took me over a year of research, gathering up hundreds of original window stickers from various years, models, and production plants. It could take you dozens of hours of experimentation to get it right.

I charge $45 for my service, I do all the research for you, and make sure you're happy with the results.

I see homemade window stickers (or the laminated variety we've grown accustomed to) and I sometimes cringe. For me, it's a passion to get these window stickers right. I wouldn't want to put a homemade 1973 Trans Am hood bird on my Trans Am where I guessed at the width of the wings and thickness of the lines, I'd rather have the most accurate reproduction available. I also make sure each window sticker is correct for the year, model, plant, and production date (very important) of your Pontiac.

As a side note, I've uncovered some amazing cars in the past 3 years. Show cars, engineering cars, executive cars, cars with zero options, cars with 40+ options, even some original window sticker variations such as spelling mistakes. I plan on doing an article on this topic in the future.

BTW, that OPGI window sticker blank is for a 1969 Firebird, not a LeMans/GTO.

I've experimented with a sticky back and I have a process to do it, but I don't include that with my window stickers. I let the owner place their window sticker in their window however they choose (tape is still the best method). I also include directions as to where the window sticker was actually placed in the window, based on your specific year and model Pontiac.

Mike

I look forward to that -
