I dont know Bill, the decals have aged more since you put yours on then the age yours were. I had NOS wing and quarter decals that were unuseable.

So although I wouldn't try to use your decals myself there might be a freak out there like me that would just want to have them and not use them. Sheldon

No yellowing, cracking, shrinking, or what ever else you may think. They stuck like crazy, too.
