	as above really, the stripes they used to put down the bottom sides of the car e.g. the mini 1275gt, the back ends of the car e.g. triumph dolomite heres a rear end photoshop a friend did for me heres a side profile of the car its going on if anyone is feeling creative.... this was my attempt, but I'm not sure its that good!

	whether its painted or viynil is pretty irrelevant to me, as I'm gonna be painting it on anyway! its more from an ideas point of view, types of font typically used, pinstripe designs etc

	cheers, very kind of you found a good pick of a 1275gt but if anyone can think of any slightly more obscure cars that had equally cool graphics or decals id be interested to see them

	Here's a few I found, sorry about the image quality of some of them. Renault seem to have had a thing for decals in the 70's/80's

	I wonder if these kind of things will start to make a comeback on moderns. I saw the recently anounced Scirocco sproty model had some pretty cool graphics on it. A brand new Audi TT in white with TURBO in big letters down the side anyone? nick

	Not a car, but hey, it's definitely got a certain period feel and one of my all time favourites; the Yamaha speed block stripes. So good they used it again on the 50th aniversary R1. [a href=""][/a]
