Especialy a positive one.
Been in contact with a guy about the Roof/Solar spoiler. Next step will be to meet with him when I get back in town at the end of this week. He also will be able to color code paint them! So if there is any interest, let me know. I will TRY to post some pictures of the product. SORRY!!!! But YES it is from the 024 Show Pace Car @ Barrett/Jackson. I know how some of you hate how all I talk about on this thread is the 95 Pace Car.

The thing of it is this. It will be very simple and compatible with out complications. The first set to be casted will be the look alike of the 1994 Brick Yard 400 Chevy Monte Carlo 5TH Generation. See photo's in previous post's. The housing will be open at the bottom. If you get it with lights. Brake or strobe. Clear, amber, mixed.
The Solar wing will be opened at the bottom and fastened by 3M double sticky tape. If lights are purchased from me or anybody else the lights are mounted first. The wires running through the rear wind shield molding. Then the solar housing applied. The housing will also be opened in the rear and capped by a smoke plastic glass removable panel for easy access. If just the wing is purchased and the owner wishes to add lights later. The wing can be removed with fishing line and cleaned fairly easily.

The strobe lights dealer has almost been chosen. I need to contact a couple more dealers. I just don't think they have what we want. Remember all Solar wings will come with the option of color matched painted.

The second line will be after Christmas. 5TH generation 1998/99 Pace car. Photo above Texas 500 Pace Car. This I feel would be a better choice for those who want the lower profile look. More like the Grand Prix Daytona 500 Pace Car. This of course would be if the first mold gets me to brake even. That's all I'm looking for. If lights are involved. Just enough profit to cover the leg work.

Then if that goes well. 6TH G Solar and rear wing with lights.

Default Not much

Not much to add lately. Bought a new Brickyard rear spoiler. It is not 100% Brickyard so I bought a used one. Painting it soon. All in all she is ready to roll next spring. Can't wait. Turns out I may not have to after all. I could be getting transfered to Orlando Fl. 10 months of car shows!!!!
Still trying to find a decent molder. Just can't seem to get this simple idea into peoples heads. I showed one vendor what I wanted. He came back with something totaly off base. He said he thought it looked cooler than G.M.'s idea. No reply from me. I just walked out the door.

Pictures looking good.
Your 01 pace car has a missing fog light?
I like the bowtie on the hood, is that factory? I asked because I think Amy's has a hood bowtie also. ( I could be completely wrong on which member.)

Hey, don't want to hi-jack this thread, but you mentioned that you got replacement decals for your 95 Brickyard. From where? I just purchased #28 two weeks ago.

Got lucky on E-Bay. There are other places out there on the web if your lucky enough to hit one with the decals you need. I just need the hood graphic.
I had a list of contacts untill my lap top crashed. I will try to find them again and forward them to you. What graphics do you need? I can try to find them when I relocate the dealers with graphics.
