I wonder if Ames would be interested in this? Right now they show out of stock for white cars but looks like they possibly have some for blue cars. Maybe they wouldn't mind having a few kits in stock. The price is considerably higher but that's just the nature of things these days.

I had emailed Stencils & Stripes about the number of guys wanting white car kits (about enough to reach number desired to do a run) and he said he would check with the manufacturer and get back to me...... have yet to get an answer.

Ryan at Stencils & Stripes said he will be reaching out to those who have contacted them for the 1970 to 1972 T/A white car kit this coming week.

I would suggest everyone saying they want a set for a white Trans Am to contact Stencils & Stripes asap to get on the list.

And for those needing a blue car kit, please keep posting here as we need to get to about a dozen interested parties to convince them to do a run for blue Trans Ams. ** I only have myself and 'ol Pinion head so far wanting a blue T/A decal kit.

UPDATE:

Everyone interested needs to contact Stencils & Stripes DIRECTLY to be placed on their list so these kits can be put in to production: stenandstripes@comcast.net


It appears from responses in this thread that there are enough for -white car- stripes to be made.


Still need more blue car owners to get that car's stripe kit made.


Thanks.

Everyone really needs to call in- we only have a couple that have actually talked to them so as of right now I can’t imagine this will happen. At this point I may get one to put back because chances are slim there will be enough interest years later as low as it is right now.

I put the last group buy together and it went smoothly. Obviously Ralph doesn’t want to fund this as a business. He is going to let the customers do it, that’s his right. It’s also his right to up the cost from 445 to 665. I think that may have something to do with the lack of commitment here. It’s easy to say yes till you have to pay for it.

Thanks Norwood. Trying to get myself a set of stripes for a blue T/A so why I tried now to get this going - really don't want to use a P/G kit.

Keep this thread going. Lets go!

Here is the link to our last pre buy. Ralph needed buyers to call and pay before he would move forward. So posting here doesn’t do any good , ypu need to call Ralph and pay up front. https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com...t=Trans+Stripe

Clearly S&S has the reputation of being the best for these stripes. What is the difference between them and PG?

When Greg developed the stripe that S&S now sells the PG stripe was incorrect in its design from its size to its lack of a clear boarder. This was an issue for many of us, when you’re paying top dollar you want a correct part. Here is the link to how the correct stripe came to be. https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com...t=Trans+stripe Since this time PG has made efforts to correct their issues. I have not measured any PG stripes but they have added the clear boarder. The PG stripe may very well be 100% correct at this time, I’m not buying a set to find out. PGs customer service at the time choose to ignore the issue

[B]GUYS:

If you want this run to happen, you need to reach out directly to Ryan at Stencils & Stripes now!! We were actually close on this forum post replies to having the dozen he needs to get the white T/A stripe kit made. Blue cars not so much. Latest from him:




10/31/24 "At this point it is a slow process moving forward. We have two orders for the Lucerne blue model and 4 for the white car far short from the twelve we are looking for each. I have spoken to a few owners who are trying to get the word out as well. If things should change I will definitely reachout to you."
