That is why I bailed 2.5 years ago. I do miss the work and Lake Michigan. Hope everything works out for you.

Fantastic grab....The DS is my fav. car of all time...well it is in the top 3 with the rough rider and sand scorcher.

I would have a hard time with that one. To keep it NIB or to build it....

hey thanks . I am one of the lucky ones my house is paid off and i have no credit card bills . But my dreams after retirement of opening a hobby shop are on hold.

looking for the decals . autographics is no longer producing decals and my wishes go out to the family.just want the"all sport decals" for the box art .

I have a NIP Mustang shell and decals, but not sure if they will be the boxart ones, probably sell them as a set on ebay eventually, along with the Merc and the truck ones.

No one ever made All Sport decals. Associated did a lot of custom one off stuff themselves. There is a RCCA feature with the Dorsey Schrader Raybestos livery as well, again custom by AE.

Would that be this one?

(Sorry for the lousy photos, the scanned file was too large)

Yep, that is the one. I have it too, somewhere in my stack of rags.

well i ll just have to use what i find . Just want to do somthing period correct for that era . I kinda like the vic edelbrock car from the vintage series maybe ill go the route . thanks for the info.

The All Sport is on my list of things to do, but there is a bunch of stuff on that list. I always loved watching Kendall kick the you know what out of everyone in the Trans Am series, plus my past life at Roush fueled my like of All Sport, Mt. Dew, and Textron liveries.

get a hold of Kris at darkside designs (http://darksidedesigns.net) an he can probably reproduce them for you.

If you want to paint instead of sticker, Tom on hobbytalk does some nice masks.

i am all over the place with what i want to do on a body. stock mustang that came with the kit or the hpi 200m bodies that i have ( 68 camaro or the mustang shelby). my question is why did associated do the box art with the all sport car an not produce the decals? I don't even know if the hpi bodies will fit this car they are just new bodies that i have and haven't used yet.

They probably deemed the licensing fees to expensive and decided not to pursue it any longer.
