Yep, that looks like I remember. They do a nice job of breaking up the body color, esp. since there's no body trim above the rockers. Too bad you can't get those anymore.

Actually, they can be reproduced. Let me talk to a friend of mine and see what he says. If he can do it, would you be interested in a set ?

Your orders are in the mail today. Thank you everyone who has ordered so far.... as for the rest of you....whatcha waitin' for?.... So far I have recovered about half of the production costs...it's got to get close to break even before I commit any more money into this project...and there are some interesting decals waiting to be reproduced... ![]() regards, Rob.

My mail is running slow...still haven't seen the latest decals! Either that or they were seized at the border and detained for questioning...

Jim,
Order details are at post #11. A thought...the old stripes had clear sections because that was the cheapest way to make them...if you are going to replicate, do it better and get them die-cut...a much better way to go. Cheers, Rob.

Jim;
The guy I would be talking to about making these uses a top of the line vinyl, it has a lifetime of 10 (yes ten) years in the weather. He can make it where the "OPEL" part is anywhere you want it.

Hi Kevin,
Your cheque arrived OK, I was about to send out your decals when I realised you have not specified which type of #5 you want? Inside white? Outside white? Outside black? Let me know and I'll get your order in the mail... Cheers, Rob.

Robbie, these are the decals I'm interested in having replicated, if there's enough interest.
