The arc where it follows the upper body line of the car is wrong where it runs along the top of the rear quarter panel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake45 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Fred Cady did decals for '70 AAR, probably to fit the old MPC body. These might come closest to fitting the "new" Revell, if you can find a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dug out my Cady decals a few days ago and it looks to me like they were sized for the Monogram 124th scale bodies....maybe I need to check again!

mopargreg Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I hoping to find someone who makes a white strobe stripe for something I want to build. Only a black stripe is in the kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ1971 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 The other issue with the strobe decal is it is too long. I’m in the process of finishing up my AAR & whilst applying the decal noticed it was too long for the body & needs to be trimmed to fit.

I'm stil trying to get someone to get the side stripes for a 71-72 Mach1 or Boss 351 to look more like the real thing. Not sure how long an order takes from the Netherlands to the USA.

George Bojaciuk Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I used the Candy decals ages ago when I did my AAR. Made the cover of Scale Auto, back then. It was based on a Monogram ‘71 ‘Cuda. Decals fit great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Bojaciuk Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) The above should have read Cady Decals. Autocorrect, chose candy....sigh! Edited November 15, 2019 by George Bojaciuk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today I applied Ray's corrected AAR Stripes for the new Revell AAR 'cuda kit. They worked perfectly, and they look great on the finished model. Ray's decal sets are exceptionally complete. He also keeps in touch with updates during the order process. Given the specialized nature of these products, plus the expenses of overseas shipping to the States, ordering is not an inexpensive venture, but well worth it when a kit's decalized graphics are not fully accurate. Thanks again, Mr. Spencer and all who replied here.....and to Ray for an excellent product. TIM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
