Anyone know a place where I could have some custom chrome emblems made? I would maybe even go the 3D "dome" shaped decal route if I have to. I've seen a few places online that do it, but does anyone recommend one of them? Thanks.

Nice nice work but a set of 281s will cost like $100. Remeber that his prices are in Canadian

 

With all the stuff out there, what are you looking for?

Never know what one of us will run across...

Well I wanted to keep it under wraps until I actually did it, but what I'm wanting to do isn't really any big deal, so here goes....... I want just the running pony in place of my GT emblems. I don't want the tribar pony, just the running pony. The problem is I need one big enough to cover the holes in the fender. Another problem is I need right and left ponies (one for each side) The GT grill pony is way to big, but the V6 tribar pony is too small, even if i cut the tribar part away and just used the pony.

I then started thinking about having the custom ponies made w/ a recessed GT stamped in the middle or something. I just want something different.

 

Very cool idea. I think the running pony alone would look really good and different.

They have 4" running ponies for both sides. Not sure what exact size you are looking for.

 

I emailed them about 2 hours ago. I need ponies at least 4 3/4 inches in length. I really don't want to go any bigger than that. The ponies on the tribar emblems are 4 1/4 inches long.

One of the above recommended badge places......autobadges I think, said the running pony is a Ford trade mark and they will not infringe on it. Oh well maybe someone else will do it for me.

 

The think3d guys work at night as this is a part time deal for them. I think thier page says to call after 6 or 8???? Nice guy though.

 

Just got an email form him, he can make anyting I want. Wants a $200.00 set up fee if I want to register the emblems as mine and mine only. If I give him permission to sell them to anyone else he will drop the set up fee. The pair of emblems will cost me $120.00. Thats a lot of money for emblems, but I know he does good work.

 

I would love to see some of these

 

Thomas at Think3D is prototyping the 281 Chevron. He told me that he's hoping to have something done in a bout 6 - 8 weeks. As soon as he gets the 281 chevron done I'll be taking off my 281 from underneath the tri-bar pony and putting a 281 chevron up front where it belongs ie. 1966 289 location.

Hey Mark. Is that my old photochop or did you do one too?

 

I made those a year ago. I recall what a pain it was to make the "1".

Also made a V-6 version.

 

That's exactly what I was thinking.
Nice work.

 

Agreed, however to keep things in the proper scale, and if these emblems are to be placed between the headlight and fender opening, they should be about 3/4 scale of the original emblems. The Classic Stangs had a much larger area to put an emblem there than the S197 does, and it would look too big IMO.

 

I am currently painting my GT fender emblems the same color as the body.
Looking for the "stealth" look.
Anyone know a place to buy painted GT emblems?
I've seen the running pony... a little too pricey for my wallet.
