Missing FT letters and decals

As you can see, one of the rubber/plastic stick on letters has left town. Does anyone know where to get these letters as I suspect FT does not stock them anymore

Also as you can see some of my "swirls" that were original decals have either been taken off or just came off from the PO. 
Easy to get off and does FT still stock them????

I have seen the name in the parts department.

I don't think they will have the side decal. You should be able to go to a sign company that makes decals.

There is always paint.  Before there were decals, we had sign painters.

I have heard from others that a nos decal can and often does suffer from "old glue syndrome"

The stickiness can be very weak. Might be better off with replica letters and decals from a local vinyl sign maker.
