I found a "GT" decal set on ebay .... reasonably priced and with a good selection in the package. It also came with 2 Koni's and the white meatballs, 2 large ones for the doors and 2 smaller for the hood and trunk. There are some others I would like as well, so a supplier here would be great.

I have just recently been ordering some on ebay as well. I am not going for a faithful GT look, but still want some vintage period-correct decals and they're out there.

I did get some of my decals from Ding Dong. Really great outfit as far as I can tell, and fairly quick delivery for being on the other side of the pond. I had been waiting a while for a set of particular decals and after a few weeks, sent them an email stating I never received them. They immediately sent out another set, I offered to pay, but they just sent it out to me with no worries. Later, I found the first set they had sent buried deep in some old mail! I think I Paypal'd for the second set gladly. Quality seems good as well. They have my vote.

Those TB or Carburetor covers are so nice. Beautiful.

Some manufacturers just don't have their act together.

An example is Kendall. Paul, who built my engine, insisted we use Kendall (the new stuff) as it had a bunch of additives that lubricate well and he has never had an engine failure due to improper lubrication.

So I've used it for three years now and no issues. Actually I have a case of Brad Penn in my garage ready to go in, but the Kendall has worked well and it makes one wonder about switching.

Anyway I go to Kendall and ask them whether or not they can supply decals for my car. I've sent them emails, responded to their web format requests and to date hear nothing.

I'm just pedantic enough to want to have a Kendall sticker on my car because I use their stuff.

I guess hillclimb and autoxing cars don't carry much weight, but come on.....

I mean how many people have seen my "Where2Race" decal on the spoiler of my car?

Not trying to hijack... but..

Do any of you know of a source for vintage euro garage signs/lights? I always thought it would be cool to do a vintage Euro garage with signs from Michelin, Aral, Cibie, Esso, Bosch, etc. instead of the more common U.S. companies.

FWIW I just bought an array of stuff from Ding Dong and it was all nice quality and arrived quickly. Thanks for the referral!
