 |
|
| Has anyone produced an aftermarket set of decals for the Mac Tonight car that Bill Elliott ran in the ... late 90's? |

Thank you.
I have one set of the kit decals, and they look brittle. I've clear coated them and I'm hoping I'm able to salvage them. Do you know if there was an aftermarket sheet for the 1997 Bill Elliott car? I know PowerSlide makes a sheet for the 2016 Jamie McMurray car. |

I think BSR or one of their “brands” did them back in the day. I have never seen a set in person however.
Good luck with your search! |

There was one aftermarket set (no brand name on them) and they were terrible.
I would advise using a couple of sets of the kit decals for this car. I'd hit them with decal bonder and see if that works. It's how I built mine.

That looks great!
What paint(s) did you use?
I've sprayed the sheet with two light coats of clear - here's hoping! |

I am trying to remember the paint. It might have been from the Testors Automotive lacquer line of spray paints. Maybe GTS Blue Pearl or something like that.
I painted the yellow on mine. |
