Ive been told several times that I need to keep the name on the doors and hood of my GMC once I get to that phase of the project, which in reality is probably really far down the road. And I whole heartedly agree on keeping the name.

So the question I have is this, should I restore the name as original, hand painted on the doors and hood?

Or do I use the name and go with the more scripted flow seen here on an old beer cap?

My wife and I have been debating this for awhile and I really cant decide which way to go. Metz started up in 1864 and ended in 1961, so the names been on the door since this truck was fairly new. Id like to do it justice when the time comes, so Im open to opinions.

Thanks, Jeff
