If it is printed, I can make it. I've got plenty of sticky back stock.

BTW...what kind of paint did they use on those color pipes? I've only owned one of those, it was a white one back in the 80s. I beat it up so bad it looked like trash. I was ashamed to be seen with it. I did eventually refinish it, but don't know what ultimately happened to it.

I'm not sure what kind of paint it is Barry. Maybe Ted can tell us. If I was going to repaint one I think I'd use some high temp engine enamel!

Now that I think about it, since they were shooting clear lacquer for finishes, they probably used colored lacquer.
Dries fast and can be easily buffed out.

Yep, got 14 of those, so I can spare a couple.
They are from a set of stickers that were used to update the displays that a retailer already had, I think. Or maybe they were used at the factory for putting on the displays. Anyway, I got an envelope of the stickers that is only marked, "ONE SET". The only thing I have done with them is used one of the "header" stickers as a bumper sticker on my truck. --RJ-- |

A special enamel that has to be resistant to heat...inside and out...and moisture...inside and out. Grabow started making the white Viscount in 1967 or 1968 as a copy of the KYM White Briar. The other colors came around in the next few years.
You have probably seen some white ones with decals on them....1980 Olympics.... and maybe several college colors with decals...Clemson, Syracuse, NC State, and UNC.....ted
