Marin Palisades Trail 1994 Decal Set

Hello :D

Anyone know where I can get some Marin stickers for a 1994 Palisades Trail. Looked about on line but the normal places just have the slightly earlier simple font, or the more later 90's versions. The one I'm after is the shadow effect which is slightly more tricky to find.

Any help would be awesome!

Cheers

Gil is the man who can.

Email some pics of the bike to him and he can sort you out.
I acquired a set for my 93 Palisades Trail and they were the beez neez !

See pics below :cool:
 
Thanks :LOL:

My latest build >>>>

Nice, the 93!

Bet thats rapid in that setup.

Remember poring over these in the catalog back in the day, then I was lucky enough to get the Palisades Trail 94 for my birthday the following year. Was my pride and joy hence the re-buying of one now to do up. Didnt realise the old Marin had such a cult following!

Do you know anyone who does resprays. Mines not bad, but it was that tricky champagne colour which is impossible to match, but way too easy to mark/scratch.
 
Re:

That's original paint, I just refreshed the decals which made a huge difference. I've not ridden it yet cos of the weather.

The champagne colour is 1995. As for resprays i've used Argos in the past and the results were sketchy sometimes so shop around.

I'm sure other members will have recommendations.

This is my 95 Pine Mountain. All original paint again.

Yeah look like the colour, believe they kept it the same for a couple of years and just changed out some of the secondary tones and the earlier decal text had a drop shadow effect.

Thanks for that, I'll have a scope around and see if I can pin it down. Will defo try a new decal set first though.
 
Re:

No probs.

I like original paint, rust, chips and scratches too. It shows it's life and adventures, plus it's only original once..

Post a few pics of your steed too ;)
 
Will do, I need to give it a wipe down and quick tidy up as I think it was a bit unloved by the previous owner. Just waiting for it to finally stop raining and i'll get out there and take some :)
 
Re:

Ive just had my bear valley resprayed by the guys at ABC enamelling in Bristol as I thought argos was too expensive, ABC cost me 90 quid for frame and forks.

see for yourself below but they did a tidy job and Gil supplied me with decals as well. He will have the files on order for you!
