long before there were vinyl wraps this paint job was done by (then) GM styling engineer Randy Wittene on the third Owens-Corning built car that was raced in Germany 1971-1972 by Curt Wetzel, friend to Tony Delorenzo.

I tried a thread like this a while back and got no response. They must be afraid your going to copy theirs or their not to proud of them.

Here's our Vette with custom decals installed. I had no other way to go since I damaged the middle of the hood a bit and although we fixed the damage, it would have needed a whole car to get repainted since the color is very old and hard to match.

Please don't get offended by the rear end message It's just quoted from the movie Sex Drive and my girlfriend wanted to have it on the car.
