Indy Pace Car decals for 1969 Z11
I'm trying to find someone that reproduces an as close to exact set of Indy Pace car decals for the doors of a 69 Z11. I know that some stencils are reproduced and available on many suppliers websites, but I've heard that they may require cutting and the dimensions of the print may be off.
Does anyone have any idea where I might find the highest quality decals that are as close to exact as possible? Thanks, Paul

I recall a Pacer owner who posted in connection to a question about whether the D96 pinstripe was removed from both doors when decals were put on, or if they went over the top. He had some good reference photos of the genuine pace cars at the Indy 500 event, and used those to set out a reproduction set of decals. IIRC, He did note some font and letter spacing issues, that could be used to get them more accurately positioned.
I'll see if I can track that thread down, although that may be one that you're already aware of, having referenced the need to cut the current reproductions?

Hi Tim,
I do recall reading that post somewhere, but I can't seem to remember where. If you can track that down, that would be great. Hey EarnTaz, I heard some great things about Phoenix Graphics today. That may be the route I take. I do want to read that post again before I make a move. Thanks for your help.

Still searching with no luck. Can't recall even which forum that thread was on. Also checking my bookmarked pages across multiple devices, will post the URL if I can find it.

Tim, Thank You for continually searching for me. Pete, Thank You for finding it. It was extremely helpful of both of you. It’ll be the last item I have to worry about on the exterior of the car which is a blessing. Kindest Regards, Paul

Hope you're able to work out the best decals, and how to position them. Would be great to see them on your car once you get it done!

You’ll be able to see before and after photos located in my album on this site. And yes, I will let you know how they turned out. Thx again!
