Hello everyone I am doing some updates to our web site here at Decals By Lucas and I want to add more people to the builders gallery section if you have any model built using our decals PLEASE send me pics along with your name and info I will give you a page on our site There is no Charge or anything for this We just want to show your model..

We are also thinking of adding a page for all drag cars using anyone's decals we have not done this because we were worried that people will think we are making the decals for the car or we are are claiming other peoples decals as our own what do you think should we or not,

we just like models that's why we wanted to do it..

Here is a link to our site now if you want to look at the builders gallery now http://decalsbylucas.com/

Stick to models featuring your own work. I'm a self employed woodworker and I would never dream of showing potential clients any pictures of anything other than my own work.

just my 2 cents

You've already answered your own question.

Also...suggestion... Maybe start working on some 62 Vette decals in anticipation of the upcoming new 62 Vette???? Please? Gassers, modifieds etc...

we already are we were lucky enough to get to examine the shots from the 3 new molds from R/M a few weeks before the hobby show and we are working on stuff for all three infact we already have the first sheet done and available for the Olds in fact we have sold quite a few already and more coming in both drag and Nascar and perhaps a short track car as well.

Who is doing a new 62 Vette and when? (I don't get out much...)

Two suggestions.

One, make some adjustments to your website regarding the listings for years so the drop down menu doesn't stretch so far down the page. If a persons browser page is rather narrow (or short) then you can't access the entire list.

Second, how about some sportsman cars from the 70's. A lot of the body styles will already fit your listings but we need some additional subject matter from that era. Fort example, a Cotten Perry, Pocket Rocket 65-66 Nova decal sheet would be awesome or a Dodge Material 65 Dodge S/S car. Or anything that Larry Kopp drove back in the Modified class days and any Sheldon Gecker "King Kong" graphics. Those would be awesome.

That's my two cents.

Well we have thought about a lot of these cars mentioned but problems are as follows

Anything for a Resin only kit just does not sell we have decals like this now that frankly are DEAD we have several that we have not sold one copy of so at this time anything that is a Resin only item will be done only is its an item Rick or myself wants for our own collection.

Sportsman Cars from the 70s ?? Do you mean cars from the NHRA modified production classes the King Kong you mention did run that class however we can't pay the 25k the guy wanted for the rights. The Ronnie Sox family said do it for free but do it RIGHT Chocolate Myers said the same thing about his dads cars 95% of the people we contact are thrilled someone remembered them and most would like a model of there car and a couple sets of decals which keeps us real busy by itself.

The term sportsman was used a lot in the late 60s and 70s do you have any pics that is the best way to tell us what you want...

Larry Kopp drove a lot but and we would like to do some but can't get any contact info for him or his family.

The Website is going to have a rebuild we just are not sure how to do it we have over a 150 decals now Drag, Nascar, Short Track, Open Wheel, Light Trucks, Dioramas, Custom Lace, Thrill Show Cars, by June 2012 we may be double that number we may need to hire someone to do the website so its more user friendly.

If you have any cars you want to see us do send pics we will get back to you. And Thanks for the feedback it all help, Again Thanks for the reply Contact me or Rick anytime even if you guys just want to talk about models..
