Not sure if it would be listed in a parts manual or not - might be worth a check at the dealer if you haven't already done so.

They were put on the car when they were prepped for Indy, same for the side stripes, no GM part number for them. Best shot is to hit a decal or graphics place and see if they reproduce it from a pic. Try Pedigo Chevrolet or Bill Estes Chevrolet in Indy, think they are the dealers that prepped the cars, for the 500 anyway and probably Brickyard.

Anytime, have some history on the 500 cars but nothing on the Brickyard cars. They appear to be decaled the same except for the Brickyard/500 decal on the front fenders. Do you have the license plate that was on the car with the number and the same number, blue decal, should be in the lower left corner of the windshield. It should also be on the car in the rear license plate area. There should also be a Certificate of Authencity from GM regional Motor Sports Division stating that it was an official event vehicle by VIN. Just FYI stuff.

Now I'm really I only have the rear decal #59 (of 60) and no other info. I suppose getting that stuff is a pipe dream at this point. Thanks again anything else you recall will be of great value. Did you buy your car from the Indy auction or a nearby dealership? Thank's again KC.
