Clive Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 If racing, the regs will probably say. If for show, find some pics of race spitfires, judge what you like the look of and then work out the size? And remember the MSA specify all race numbers are covered or removed when on the road.

JohnD Posted November 7, 2018 Report Share Posted November 7, 2018 See MSA Yearbook, Section J, Para 4.1 etc: "Competition Numbers [Chart 4] 4.1. Numbers must be displayed in a durable manner and be black, of a minimum size of 23cm high with stroke width of a minimum of 3.8cm on a white oblong background measuring not less than 48cm x 33cm which must extend at least 5cm beyond the outline of the numbers. Alternatively, the numbers may be displayed on a white circular background provided that the background extends at least 5cm beyond the outline of the numbers. 4.1.1. If on a white vehicle a background of the dimensions in 4.1. must be delineated by a continuous black line, except for cars of period A to E. 4.1.2. Numbers must be displayed on each side of the vehicle (front doors, alongside the cockpit or on rear wing end plates) and on the foremost part of the nose." And Drawing No.4 several pages later. The Yearbook ("Blue Book") is available online at the MSA website. Many performance shops will sell vinyl roundels of the correct size, or you can buy them on eBay.
