Hi there,
I am in the process of restoring my 73 2.0 that I bought in Georgia. I live in Germany. The body is completely stripped and should go to get some small work done and then to the paint shop. I want the paint to look perfect. The car has a decal on the drivers side doorframe. How do I get it off and on again after the paintwork? Anyone who has a good idea or some experience with that? My first thought was, to put some transparent adhesive foil on it, "warm" it up from underneath the metal and take it off that way. To put it back again, I could probably cut the foil to the size of the decal and refit it somehow. What do you guys from the USA do to get it off and on again? Same problem with the Karman sign. I could get it off by drilling the 4 pins that hold it. But how do I get it on again in a way that it looks precisely like before? Would be grateful for any experience shared! Take care, Werner |
