Jonathan Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 Howdy, All.Does anyone know if North Carolina Trooper decals are available on the aftermarket for this kit? Most of my searches lead me to the Lindberg Charger/Crown Vic. kits. thanks!
The Junkman Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 This vendor is selling some NCSP decals. Haven't got the slightest notion if these will fit the Mustang.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Made-NORTH-CAROLINA-HIGHWAY-PATROL-1-25-scale-police-decals-/332023793897?hash=item4d4e2908e9Maybe you can contact the vendor and see if they are adaptable. I've done that with some success.
jefropas Posted November 11, 2016 Posted November 11, 2016 Chimneyville used to make em, the Mustangs used the smallest possible circle seals because of its size. Many police decals are way over-sized for Revell's SSP...the only way to truly know is trial and error or custom decals.Jeff
Jonathan Posted November 12, 2016 Author Posted November 12, 2016 Thanks for the tips. I don't think the eBay fellow's decals will work. I'll reach out to him, though. Maybe he does custom stuff? Here's a picture I found of the NC Highway Patrol (Trooper) Mustang:
randyc Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 I would think the Chimneyvilles would work. Ican't imagine the state getting a different size just for the mustang. Of course they did get that batch of reverse painted Caprices a few years back.... I will try to see if I have a set this week if I can remember to look - I used to have a couple sets.. Don't ever get old - you cant' remember to do things that aren't essential to survival. lol
The Junkman Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 I would think the Chimneyvilles would work. I can't imagine the state getting a different size just for the mustang. I can guarantee you that differing sizes of logos and graphics can and do occur. When you get down to it you're really just dealing with some adhesive stickers. Easy to print in multiple sizes.
Jonathan Posted November 18, 2016 Author Posted November 18, 2016 Check it out! Ask, and ye shall receive. As suggested by Jeff, I reached out to Kevin "neatstuff4all" on eBay and he worked up a set of decals for the NC State Trooper Mustang SSP. Looks like he has several copies for sale.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Made-2-Sets-NORTH-CAROLINA-HIGHWAY-PATROL-1-25-scale-police-decals-/332036608536?hash=item4d4eec9218:g:qFwAAOSwA3dYLxvc
Jonathan Posted November 18, 2016 Author Posted November 18, 2016 I've somehow managed to screw up my reply there. Anyway, Kevin "neatstufff4all" made some and has some others for sale on eBay. They look to be of good quality. Thanks for the suggestions!
jefropas Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 I have some of his stuff, its pretty good, I think I have Wyoming HP, will probably order these, thanks!Jeff
SFC_Allen Posted November 23, 2016 Posted November 23, 2016 Anyone have a pic of his decals on a vehicle yet? I was looking at a few sets but some looked real grainy but I couldn't tell if it was the lighting, picture or the decals themselves. Thanks Earle
Jonathan Posted November 23, 2016 Author Posted November 23, 2016 (edited) Mine arrived today. I thought they looked pretty good and I'm looking forward to trying them. That is, to my eye, they look pretty sharp. That said, I've not actually seen them "installed" yet. Edited November 23, 2016 by Jonathan
