What? You want door decals? I thought you did not like them? Come to the dark side Jarred and put them on.

 

[jarredsoon]

Yes I put them on your 733 and miss that look. If you have any will take them off your hands . If not I'll have to wait until you sell me 733 back again.

I just sold an extra set to a guy around me for $100. I had to have the windshield replaced on 733 and bought the windshield and door decal set and didn't need the door ones. I might be selling 733 this year due to circumstances, but I am not sure yet and nothing is ever written in stone.

Those reproductions have a funny looking 3 I thought? Perhaps I am wrong. Can any one confirm or deny that the Pheonix Graphix door decals have the wrong font for the number 3 in "73rd"?

THanks

Maybe this could be helpful? DontKnow:
#545 was repainted (2 owners ago), and I have [supposedly] the original decals in the box - so the car must have "repros" applied(?)

Classic Industries has them also

"The "3" is funny?? HUH?

 

[jarredsoon]

Yes I have seen decals where the ends of the 3 curl up and down rather than going straight.

Thanks for the links!!

I have seen some that were not right also, but have no idea where they came from. I have purchased several sets from Phoenix Graphics and they were all correct. Their windshield decal was not curved like the original, but otherwise was correct, nothing a few cuts between the letters couldn't fix to make it curve with the top of the windshield.

 

[jarredsoon]

That is good news that you got correct decals from pheonix graphics. It will have more confidence ordering from there now as the pic on their website you can hardly see the font on the decal

This is one from a set of magnet decals I made a few years back.

 

[Mike Arrigo]

I thought the windshield decal from Phoenix was not quite white enough and I actually emailed them back and forth last year. They never resolved the issue and I felt like I was forgotten about after I sent pictures of them on my car. My decal is more of a grey than white from them, but they are nice, just not as white as I would like..

This is one from a set of magnet decals I made a few years back.

That looks nice and I have been considering doing that. Did you paint the magnet before you put the stickers on it, or does it just match that well?

 

[2QUIK6]

Yes, the magnet was paint matched. I ended up leaving them on all the time, so I sold them and put another set of decals on the car permanently, that was on the ttop car I had before. The door decals on the HT car are phoenix graphic as well, and the originals are in the golden box.

Yeah Mike, that windshield decal looks a little off in the pic, I'll have to go look at mine again now and snap a pic to compare, seems like the one I got from them was whiter than the car.

 

[2QUIK6]

Mike, here's my windshield pic, its a shade whiter than the car. Check out the hologram firebird in the lower windshield..lol Reflection off of a poster hanging in my garage!
