 I got these from Mid Fifties Truck parts $10.00or so. The seem to be holding up well after 6 months. They are adheasive backed not water type transfer type. I think they may have also had Thunderbird and Thunderbird Special.

MoonShadow (4/2/2009) The stock like ones that are on EBAY right now are stick on not water slide. They should be ok. Guy that sells them seems ok but you never know. I like the design in the picture on this forum but are they a "stock" design or someones rendition? If so who's design is it? ChuckI had them done because I was sick of the crappy water slide ones. THese are based on the water slide ones that were used as a template, with a few very minor, very subtle adjustments.

Thats another good point. If good decals are available would it be worth making a different design? Chuck in NH

I got some from Concours auto parts about 8 years ago and they still look good after about 10,000 miles.

Hello Chuck.This is the type of item that I think would sell well.I have found the same thing as everyone else-the water transfer ones aren't worth a dime.If the decal style were available and legal I think they would sell well here and on places like Epay for instance.Will be watching to see what happens with this idea!

The stickers I have done are the same quality as the Y-Block shootout stickers I bring each year. They have great UV resistance etc. I too would want to make sure the design was available for legal use and would need to contact the artist to make sure. We could create our own version of it though. There was discussion about doing the Y-Blocks forever logo for valve covers but I would need Jim's and Jerry's permission plus sufficient orders to justify making them. Chuck in NH

Pretty sure I couldnt make enough money at it to be worth a legal hassle!!  I dunno. People tend to buy stuff that works over stuff that don't. Of course, if that was true then we wouldn't be getting all this Chinese junk. I guess it's a paradox?

I had them made at a local sticker shop because i couldnt get a good result with the water transfer, which is all i could find. Id be happy to see about getting some more run and the price (probably have to do a sheet of 10), BUT I have no idea if there any copyright issues, etc? Pretty sure I couldnt make enough money at it to be worth a legal hassle!!
