Can't tell you where to find any of this, but wasn't this the "Rat Fink"
series?  Maybe 30 years ago would be more accurate.  Done by a guy who
started out pin-striping cars.  Someone is going to have to help me with
his name.  60's stuff, I remember this stuff well.  They even made
plastic model kits of some of them.  Cool.
