I've been piecing them together but it's not really looking like they match well. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 | If anyone knows it would be Denny Graham you could send him a PM. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 22 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 22 | | | | | | Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 22 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jul 2012 Posts: 22 | Ok..

It'll pop up in search forum with varying topics. I just checked. However, he did make a big home move recently and has been very busy with that. He might see a PM tho.

There may be some stock fonts with a faint resemblance (like Broadway which isn't even close) but nothing closer.
Auto manufacturers spend lots of money on graphics and seldom, or never, use existing fonts for their corporate identity.

If its the white lettering for the guages that says oil press, or amps, oil ect then Czechman has some that are made to place on the metal piece and rub the letters off on it. I have set and they will work nice. I believe theyre about 8 bucks for a set.....if this is what your talking about. http://www.pbase.com/czechman/instrumentsIf your looking for letters to go in the letters of C H E V R O L E T on the piece over the radio grille most vendors have vinyl letters fairly cheap. I ordered my white vinyl "block style" letters from Carter or maybe it was Classic Parts and put them in place. I think they also had black letters. Hope I'm on the right track and this helps.
