15th Anniversaty TA pace car decal questions

I have a 15th Anniversary Trans am that I am in the process of restoring. I have seen a picture a long time ago of a 15th with pace car decals from the 1984 Detroit Grand Prix. I would like to put these on my car. Does anyone have any pic of what these decals would look like or where I can find them? If I can find a picture of them on a car, I can take it to a decal place and have them made. If somebody can help me out, Id sure appreciate it. Thanks in advance.,

I'm not aware of anyone producing those. If Phoenix or Sencils & Stripes don't have them I doubt they are being produced anywhere. Do you have a photo of them?

www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/damonhill/164 had this picture. It is from one of the POCI (Pontiac Oakland Club International) Conventions. Not a good picture.

I will try to post some pics.

The first one is from an issue of HPP. The car is privately owned.

Great it worked

I will try another one.

This is from the 1985 Daytona 500 program given out at the race.

It shows a 1984 15th T/A pacing the 84 DT500.

i may be alone here. but i think that is horribly ugly. just go with the trans am letters and call it a day.

oh, just realised you are probably "restoring" did your car originaly have that? if so. cool. if not, hey what do i know, i drive a v6
