As an aside, all freighters retained the original shorter upper deck, right up through the current -8F. The -8 Intercontinental, the passenger version from which AF1 will be made, has the same "shape" as every 747 that preceded it. The only changes in the -8 (other than being lengthened a bit) are new wings, engines, and landing gear.

Try to use the same paint or wrap template and you end up looking silly.

About 29 feet silly.
