    Add a little "sting" to your Hornet. Someone posted a bunch of old Isky cam stuff in the streetrod forum, and I like the bee image so much, I sorta lifted the graphic, cropped, sized, etc... and whamo.



    I got a lot of complaints about the other avatar, and found some people were a bit offended, and instead of perpetuating that offense, I took the high road and changed it. I wish others would be as capable, but oh well.



    I'm glad you all enjoyed the clips. I figured they were worth sharing!

    FYI

    I posted the old style 'Put the Sting in your Hornet' Decal for others to copy & enjoy. Its from Ed Iskerderian Camss and makes quite a statement about enhancing Hornet's Performance.



    I used to run only Isky Track Cams in my Hornets 'back in the Day' and recently had Isky grind two cams. They looked for the old style decal for me and I located anther to put on my Hudsons. I am glad that you like the Decal.

    If you can send me a decal, or a superb scan of the decal, I can have it reproduced, if it is not already. I like the decal. fersure...
  • I spotted that decal on the streetrod forum, and LOVE IT!



    I wonder if Ed would consent to it being reproduced for us Hudnuts?



    An Isky decal and a B&M HydroStick decal would be some cool Hudson graffitti.



    fersure.

    .. I raced modified Hornets later from the end of the '50's into the late '60's. ..

    hudsonkid,

    I have pretty much the whole decal. I reduced a copy to put onto my Hudson window using clear tape. Scanning didnt turn out well as you seen in my Post.

    I'm trying to figure out what we could do here..... I might make a "fantasy" decal of this whole thing, incorporating the type "Put a little sting in your Hornet" (and might even change this to "Put a little sting in your Wasp" (for the SWB guys) and on one end, keep the bee, and the other put the Isky cam logo....



    If you can get me anything that has contrast, scan, etc... of at least the logo, I think I could work with it. Let me mess around, see what I can get done as a practice run. If this sounds cool, see what you can produce for me, in regards to a scan.
