I am a graphic designer for the scale model industry. Lettering as on the
Westfalia pop-top would be easy to make in 1:24 scale. This is the type of
work I do all day, although most of my work is for six model train
manufacturers, I also do the same type of work for a company that makes
collectible toy trucks.

If there is enough interest, I can create art and then make some
"water-activated" clear base decals in two or three colors.

The problem with going to the sign shops for pressure-sensitive decals, is
that there is a lot of "bulk" to the paper or vinyl that they use, however
it probably wouldn't be an unacceptable alternative.

Those interested in my suggestion should contact me directly.
