Re: Stickers on your third gen

The only sticker I sport on each of my 3rd-gens is required for access to the naval base (Department of Defense decal). Though retired, I still use the auto hobby shop there to do some jobs that my driveway/garage isn't equipped to do. Flat bays are next to nothing to rent by the hour, lift bays are $9/hr IIRC and tools are free.

My decal is visible in the upper right at the base of the windshield...

Wondering why you don't have a vac hose hooked to your booster???
Need to peel the gates sticker off of your upper rad hose also.

Re: Stickers on your third gen

"I love yoga pants" is pretty spot on and "no fat chicks" will always be great. Throw in a "who farted?" and you'd be set. haha

I'm not a fan of stickers, but we all read them. Instead of "it's a jeep thing...you wouldn't understand", I saw a dakota with "it's a jeep thing...and I don't give a sh*t", which was great. Also recently saw what I thought was a "tapout" mma sticker (you know, since tons of people are mma fighters now) that actually read "douchebag" in the exact same font. One of the best stickers I've seen recently. I'm not a fan of stickers, but I do enjoy the funny ones.

The pic is toward the end of a motor swap and some of the finishing touches not complete yet. Notice the hood is not replaced yet. The booster vacuum of course, is hooked up and the sticker on the hose is long gone

Along the same lines as the Corvette that was mentioned, I used to have "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT" at the top of my windshield backwards.

I used to have that one (dark charcoal color so it didnt look to stupid) back in 92 for a summer and took it off.
Then I put on my inside rear view mirror in about 1/8th" silver lettering "objects in mirror are losing" and its been on there since 93.

Re: Stickers on your third gen

I like the OE decals (as opposed to after market advertisements). Since there were no 5.7 HO decals I had a sign shop make rockers, bumper, and air cleaner decals, all in factory font. Looks dead on OE.

Re: Stickers on your third gen

I gave most of my market advertisement stickers to my 3 y/o nephew to put on his racecar bed

I autocrossed a '73 240Z (Nuprin) for a couple of years. It already had the Havoline and "28" and some other stickers on it. Since it was mostly just for autocross, I left them on, and added the Texas A&M Sports Car Club and some others. Favorite one I added was the WANTED: Good woman able to push racecar. It came true (after that car died). My wife helps me push Knocker unfortunately too often


Story behind the montage (only pic I have of the rear of the car) is a friend had just bought that B4C. I challenged him lunch (Layn'es) that I could beat him in Nuprin, my 4 runs vs his first 4 runs ever in that car at an autocross.

Current favorite sticker on Knocker...
