Nice plate Bill!
That ghostbusters sticker fits right in. When that movie came out - it was all the rage.
I had those chrome DK stickers on just about everything I owned back then too.

I've got a couple of orignal SST stickers (race and freestyle era). Looking for one more.

I love the old number plates full of old stickers. Those are the best!

I've been working on a replica bike of a friend or mine's now for a while. I finally got this old frame sticker off, flipped around and on to the top tube. I'll be finished with this one real soon.
I don't know how it came to be on the bottom tube, maybe someone replaced it or moved it way back in the day to be like a lot of other bikes with it on the down tube?, I don't know, but I've had this one about 7-8 years and you can tell it's been on there way before I ever got it.

I was pretty happy to get it off in one piece. With the little holes and tears in it, I was kind of worried about this one.

Unfortunately 100% of the sticky stuff stayed on the frame, but some super strong spray adhesive did the trick.

This should work.

Re-mounting an original decal.
Very cool! Glad you were able to save the decals.

Seeing Shinglehead's awesome toolbox prompted me to post my OG race box - still in use for all my bike tools.

I can't believe we haven't seen this since August... seems like last month or so.
Time flies.
I'm so impressed with what you did there, Don... holy smokes, that's a clinic on next level restoration.
