The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Window sticker (invoice)

I've searched and searched and can't seem to find any vendors that make reproduction window invoices. Does anybody out there know how to get one, or if it's even possible?

TIA, DB

With a computer and knowledge of what one looked like you can make your own. The trick, as I see it, is to find out what it looked like.

Well now that's is the trick isn't it! I think Chris would be happy if someone would post a scan of an original sticker. I'm sure that there are examples of the original stickers for every model of these trucks that we are restoring, horded in with the bundles of junk that was in the glove box or under the seat . Over the years I've had many cars that still had the owners manual tucked away in the glove box with the original Bill of Sale and Window sticker folded inside. All we have to do is get the guys that have them to share a scan with us. I think it would be neat to have one for my 1950, 3604.
This is all the vendors do, just find original paper work scan it, clean it up and have a bunch printed and charge you $5.00 for a quality control tag, etc. I shouldn't use that tone, actually most of the reproduction paper work is quite reasonable.
Well all this doesn't help you Chris but maybe someone else will take pitty on you and send you a scan.

Chris, here is one from a 55. It may be close to the AD.

Hey BIG CHEVY 3600 , your example is just like the original receipt I have for my truck.

Well there you go TIA DB. I would use MS Publisher and make my own. You'll need to know what extras and prices first. Good luck.

Well there you go! Thanks Big, that's a start, that's a couple of model years. I didn't know tocmp.com had any posted, there is so much information over there one could spend a year browsing and never see it all.
Hey littlebuddie, you sound like one of those guys that I was talkin’ bout, that is, one of those that still had the original paper work in the glove box when ya bought the truck, right???? Why don't ya submit it to Keith and let him add it to the others over at tocmp.com? He has a permanent plea posted; http://www.stovebolt.com/bboard/cgi-bin//ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=22;t=008508
If it’s from a ’48 then that fills in the gap from the ’40 and ’55 that are already posted. That one should be a good example of the invoice that the AD’s were shipped with.
I've been using Adobe Photoshop and Illistrator to reproduce accurate labels for old antique radios for years.

Many thanks - I kind of figured I'd be doing a CPA (cut, paste, attach) job to get where I wanted. Since the truck bears little resemblance to what came off the line, I was going to use the window sticker format for my "show poster" (although I'm getting way ahead of myself, I'm still doing body work.)

Again, thanks, these were a great start.

one from 64 web page

I wonder if back then they charged $200 for the "environmental protection" wax job and $400 for pinstriping?

Bill

Nearly right Denny, I am one of those gals.
My dad bought the truck new so yeah, it came with the truck when I got it. Here is the scan, some of the information has been removed. I suppose someone could steal a truck's identity if they were so inclined.

here is the orginal one for my 52 sedan,, sorry I am a little late but here it is anyway

click h ere maybe this link will work and you wont be bored looking at all the pix

3rd row first pix..

Joker, they actually considered 5 qts of Prestone as an option? The ~$5 charge seems rather steep, too!

Do you have any idea what coolant was offered as standard equipment?

Bill

nope,no idea.....remember this car was sold in NC so ... that might explain it

Thanks guys and "gals". That's the kind of cooperation that we need. Hope we see some more and I wish I had some paper to share.
