Thanks Jason, Mark, and Kevin for the GT badge info. I am replacing my GT badges with some retro looking GT badges. David from TNT Mustangs in Maryland is a Scott Drake retailer. He is selling me two reproduction Scott Drake 1968 Mustang GT badges. The badges have studs which he is removing, and he is installing 3M tape. I think this badge will be a nice retro touch and a classy look. The link to his website is below along with a picture of the GT Badge. The badge measures 4" across and 1 1/2" in height

Sweet! You're taking this retro theme to new heights, Bobby! Excellent idea.

A guy in Canada added the "MUSTANG" script to his decklid. Looks great IMO. Have you seen it?

Looks nice, but I can’t really say until I see them on a car.

Yeah Chris I saw the gentleman from Canada's car. He placed the G T A emblems on the side and had the Mustang lettering across the back. It really looked sharp The guy I contacted about the emblems I am getting also sells all those Scott Drake reproduced emblems. The pins need to be removed and 3M tape used to affix them to the car. No way am I drilling holes.

Gentlemen I will post some pics once I install them, should be late next week.

This will look good, Bobby. As usual, you are right on top of it with a good idea.

Hey Bobby........they'll look EXCELLENT!!!!!! A great choice, I was sort of fixated on the "GTA" emblem cause I wanted '67 style side stripes but flip flopped a couple of times to no stripes and your emblem (and not having to worry about covering the holes).

Look forward to the rest of the pics.

Mark

Hey Mark, your car looks awsome. I almost did like you, and bought the G T A emblems. I think they are so cool, since I have an auto. In fact my plates almost read 05 GTA. I'll post some pics once I get the emblems
