I'd posted this before, possibly on the Facebook side. My project has one of these special interest auto club (interior) decals on the lower right of the windshield. Sadly the windshield is wiper scratched and probably not salvageable. Barry Washington supplied me with documentation of my car having been registered in that club and I thought it'd be cool to locate another decal. Anyone have any laying around that they'd part with?

I may: I'll have a look.
You could get a new one made for not too much $$$$ either, these days it's easy for the sign places to scan them and print a few. I may have one though. I had the SIAC and the CCOA stickers on my FM3 Challenger back in the 80's, the CCOA sticker was really cool, I know I don't have an extra of it.
Ok, thanks. Let me know.
SIAC was started around the time I bought my T/A when I was in High School. I joined and have most if not all of the newsletters and have a sticker or two stashed away. Great club, I'm sorry I was tied up in school etc and couldn't have got more involved or attended any of the national events back in the 80s before it went away.
My extra sticker is stuck on my toolbox, sorry.
Well, that probably wouldn't have been an inside the windshield sticker anyway, but thanks for looking!
Yup outside. That makes sense why I had it. I used the inside one for my windshield and had this one left over.
You might try and contact Jeff Johnson in Ohio, dont know if he is a member here.
He was club president in the beginning, is still around and may have some.
I joined in 1981 the year they formed and like Sheldon, put those decals on everything.
I still have one on the 1/4 glass on my Cuda that I bought in 1976, and have one on a display case.
I'm sure Jaybee will chime in when he sees this.
He was an Ontario Rep in the early years and may have one.

It was formed before that, I just dug out my stash of old newsletters, and the first "T/A-AAR S.I.A.C." newsletter, personally signed by Al Leggat, who started the club with Butch Swingle, is the October-November 1979 issue. Within a couple years, the club had grown a lot, and the newsletter had morphed into a small magazine called All American Racer, edited by Jeff Johnson, and the club name had been shortened to SIAC.
After the club ended, Jeff Johnson kept the magazine going for a while but called Classic Chrysler Quarterly.
You're correct. That email went to Jeff. My bad. I'm primarily after one that could go on the inside of a replacement windshield. We'll see if he replies and what he has and I'll post back to this thread. I very much appreciate all the help.

I too was a member back in the mid 80's. I still have my wife's and my membership cards, and Barry sent my original application form to me for free ( thank you Barry). Wouldve been nice to have some of the old window decals. Thanks, Al
It would be awesome to have a few of both the SIAC & CCOA stickers made up , I was a member as well & I know I had the stickers on my 68 Cuda & I only had that car for 1 year , I thought it was 78 but maybe it was 79 . I would be interested in a couple of stickers if someone gets them repopped. I knew John Vanka well decades ago also
I'd take a set or two as well. They are really cool!
I wasn't around back then so I didn't get the chance to be a member.

You could take a heat gun or hair dryer and carefully heat it and then carefully use a new single side razor blade and it should come right off. You may even have enough glue left to re-adhere, but I'd use a 3M spray adhesive just in case and that should do it. They used to use adhesive stickers here at the police reporting centre and I've got about a dozen on my old tool box. Easy peasy :cheers:
I was a SIAC member back in the day. It was the first car club group that I ever joined. I think it was '81 when I signed up. I went up and down the west coast attending events that SIAC was involved with. Then I got married and moved to Florida ... that was pretty much it for me and SIAC. I don't remember when it ceased to exist as an entity ... when about was that??
I loved that club. I still have a few things. One of them is a listing of the entire database of the members.

SIAC form for application to join:
Yes, another member had found a current address for me that even matched the odd first name of his wife. I sent a letter with multiple means of contacting me, explaining that I had his old car. Understanding he'd be 70-80 by now, I still hoped he'd be thrilled and reply somehow. Yet nothing. Never did find a phone number. I can only imagine what info or pics he may have, perhaps even previous owner or dealership info.
Greetings! I just discovered this group thanks to 7E-Bodies. Great to see so many old friends on here! Though I currently don't own an E-Body (can't afford them anymore!) I have owned 3 T/As, over a dozen 71 Challengers and a few Cudas, most recently a red Six Pack with a lift off hood that was on the cover of MSG. BTW I do have a fairly large quantity of original SIAC decals left. No need to ever reproduce them. If anyone is interested, they are $5 each ppd, either inside or outside mount. My PayPal address is jeffjohnson426@yahoo.com or PM me. T/Ake care.
Disregard!
Welcome to the site , I am glad you joined Jeff :twothumbsup:
I will be ordering from you , any of the CCOA decals ?
Sorry, but wasn't involved with CCOA. Thanks.
WELCOME TO JEFF JOHNSON!!!! ALL AMERICAN RACER newsletter was so great, as well as SIAC!!! I, too, still have all my past ALL AMERICAN RACER newsletters... and one decal... will need to apply new ones to my T/A.
Wow. I've seen that car long ago, either in person or in a magazine. And I'm in Illinois.
Cool! I have the first one but not the second. Thank you. It interesting that the cop doesn't notice the slicks or open headers on a car that's sitting in the street.
I remember seeing the "nuke gm" Challenger at the '85 Nats ... is that your old ride Jeff??
Yes it is.
No. The State of Ohio revoked NUKE GM. There was an article on the front page of the Columbus Dispatch years ago that said the BMV was banning plates that were hateful or portrayed violence. NUKE GM was cited in the article. BTW a friend had WILD 69 on his SS Camaro. It was yanked after a cop saw him using it on his CJ Jeep instead.
I ran across some of the MMCI glitter stickers the other day in a photo album, and the CCOA ones too. Will try to get pics - assuming I can fig it out!!
Amazing how names/pics bring the memories flooding back!
