First off, just wanted to say "hi" since I'm a new guy here. Ive been on TC for a while, and check in here from time to time. Also went to SCR8. Great show. Anyway...

I'm not really sure there is a definite diagram/chart of the markings for these cars. Sure, there are marks that were supposed to go on all the cars.I've never come across two cars that had all the same marks. Myself, I only put back what I find, document with dig pics and diagrams. Sometimes, when car's markings are too overzealous, it looks a little silly to me. JMO.

Here are the spindles of one Im building now, just recreated what I found. Also, the pitman arm had a white stripe and the center link had yellow and white marks near the LH inner tie rod.

Just remember that the marks were put on at the assemble line at 50 jobs an hour. So don't make them to nice.
