Lots of room for equipment and spare parts in the SS, and I bet a Speed Shop would be glad to Donate some toys and support, as I remember Bill Hann worked on a Bull Run car last year.

Forgot to add something in my last post.
Having worked with vynil lettering and such for years. Even the best vynil only lasts a few years, and that depends on how much sunlight it gets during the day. You might want to keep a good check on it, and replace it after a couple of years. If you leave it on a little too long, it's a real ***** to get back off[read: total re-paint of car, most caes].
Thats why when I put the racing stripes on my SS[color matched to the wheels] it will be painted on, and cleared.
I don't want it causing you grief, down the road.
Still, It looks plenty sharp. I like it, and I'm real picky about looks on cars, being in the business on making them look good. SWEET! "Moon"

it is a 6-8 year vinyl... of coarse it usually never last that long haha besides i get bored alot and fast with things i own especially vehicles so the stripes wont be on forever.. sorta why i went with vinyl over paint.. the vinyl is actually purchased from a sign company too not just typical 3m... yeah i also faced consequences of vinyl once with my sportbike... i got ticked that it didn look how i wanted it (i.e creases, bubbles, unsticking) so i come home from work and ripped the vinyl off .. HAHA it come off easy on metal painted surface but it took the paint off the plastics right off in some spots haha needless to say..i painted the bike a new color anyways hahaha so if anyone gets stripes with vinyl and dont like em.. USE HAIRDRYER and with little heat will come right back off (unless the sun baked em on as moonsign stated )
