So maybe stopping by a thrift shop wasn't my best choice, but they did have a bunch of model car kits. I went though more than half of them and none had decals. I'm sort of wondering if with all the trademark battles of a few years ago manufacturers just left them out, or did some thoughtful builder remove them to a drier place and forget to return them?

At any rate, are AM decals for racing cars; NASCAR, Indy, dragsters available?

Its possible the decals were bad and tossed out or the person may have used the decals on other builds.
Either way, after market racing decals are readily available and pretty easy to find.

Living in a 'wet' place like Seattle, I wouldn't have been surprised if the decals had been removed to drier storage.
By readily available, you mean some place other than Squadron / Sprue Brothers.

I'm not sure about NASCAR, but you can try Indycals Decals for Indy Car & F1 decals.
