What do you guys think of the design? I work for a sign shop and can cut vinyl all day long. Any colors also. If you guys want anything let me know.

That would be cool. I would, however, make "Powered By" in cursive and then use the Ford logo. And make the "Powered By" Small and on one line starting it just below the Horses tail.

I really like that design, That lettering just looks a little bold. Does that come as one solid piece or each word and the horse each alone. Or is every letter its own piece?

It will come as a taped together 1 piece decal. Simply remove the backing paper, place on the item and push the vinyl down real well then remove the top layer. Very simple

please send to me as well...javdog beat me to it, but i'd love to do this...also, maybe the same font as on the side stripes of the GT/CS...black with silver vinyl?Would we need to clearcoat over the graphic?

I am having a hard time locating the font for the 1968 California Special. I can make it pretty close but not exact.

For best results, the decals would need to be mounted on a clean, smooth surface and clear coated over.

We can do these in almost any colors you would want.

Here you go. This would be a little more due to the double color of the ford logo (blue and silver)



Here is another example:
