Very nice I need to get my Mason's emblem back on my car.. one of the mounting posts is broke. It was at the dealer where the ramchargers started building cars at the time they were there. (from what i read)

I love those old dealer emblems. Most were pot meral and pitted bad. Drill and tap for a machine screw?

You gonna get a "Gas, Grass or ***" sticker also?

That was on the Iverson Automotive site I had mentioned earlier. You could smooth the old one out and sand cast it in aluminum. They can be flat on the back so that is easy to mold. It would take a few tries because of the small details.

I found a N.O.S. one for my '64 Polara from a fellow I knew that worked in parts department back in the day. He had it in his tool box and it had never been on a car. I reattached it to the original holes drilled in the trunk lid. McManus Motors in nearby London, Ontario. One of the largest Dodge/Chrysler dealers in the area at the time. No longer in business.

We did too. We cast a lot of Hurst T handles.

Sadly NRA.... i own a few guns but i'm not one of those weird people that act like it's some accomplishment to put down a credit card and then treat it like a toy... i wish it were NHRA

Thought I had a set of headlight rings Mike, but I must have sold them since buying my '64.
