As my paint job continues I got the Chevrolet lettering on my tailgate done.
The letters are burnished silver leaf with a light blue contrasting pinstripe around them.
I got the lad to add a little feline friend as well,there is a Chevy connection,Felix Chevrolet are a California based dealer who struck a deal with his producers to use him as their mascot in the 1920's plus my Missus is a big fan.
It's not a great picture,trust me it looks so much better in the flesh.

Tailgate.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

That blue which you chose for this truck is amazing. I can't wait to see some picks of the entire truck.
