Excellent work. Your lowboy is going to be sweet looking with that excavator on it. I especially like the way you built your gooseneck!

There have been some Gooche repos on e-bay. You may also look for Cat Nascar decals. Maybe they'll work.

Nascar decals would be great because they have the newer style logo. The bulldozer ones might be available from Dennis at Model Express.

This is going to be sharp. I like it so far. Then again, green kw's were always my favorite.
