[quote user="CNW534"] [quote user="Lord Atmo"]it's got all the decals on it though. no RR puts decals on primer units. [/quote] Exactly.  Those Scotchlite emblems, letters and striping aren't cheap, even when purchased in bulk.  I know a modest graphics package for each of my EMS department's ambulances costs $800. Mark [/quote] I dont know the cost of decals for big trucks but on the Fiberglass freightliner bodies it is no problem to use Citrus Acid to strip the old decal off and literally rub the new one on. Sometimes in cold weather we gotta heat the surface to hand peel or scrape the decal off. I was assigned a virgin unit that was decaled for the so called Elite Fleet and it only took 20 minutes to strip that decoration off the body. 5 unit letters later (And a computer speed reduction from 75 to 63), it was a regular unit in revenue service. The old days of hand painting signs etc on trucks is pretty dead, but it is still maintained as a art form for show trucks.
