front and rear emblems
69 Camaro
The small emblems that go on the deck lid and the header panel. I hesitate to use anything repro because most is crap. Are the repros of these any good? One of mine is pitted. The other <span style="font-weight: bold">was</span> perfect, but a post twisted off last night while installing. Crap. |
Re: front and rear emblems
I think I have 2 NOS ones in the box Lynn. "Camaro" in script for top of fender and trunk lid.

Re: front and rear emblems
Lynn,
If you have to go with repop,i would go with parts made by Trim Parts.Herd nothing but good things about Trim Parts.Of course,anything NOS is the best if you can find what your looking for. |
Re: front and rear emblems
Not always true Mark. The newer NOS parts are not as crisp and fit and finish leaves alot to be desired sometimes. The dyes got pretty old and not as sharp as stuff from the 70's-80's. I love good used sheetmetal and early NOS trim parts. JMO

Re: front and rear emblems
Apparently Trim parts doesn't make the 68 69 emblem. They have the 70 emblem.
Couple NOS ones on ebay, but pics aren't clear enough to see how nice they are. |
Re: front and rear emblems

3916654 is the header and trunk emblem part number. Just beware of the flawed later NOS emblems that have the B in By that's all boogered up like this: http://i.ebayimg.com/t/ORIGINAL-GM-N...22mg~~60_1.JPG |

And this was one of them...at least in my case. I found two NOS ones to use. There is a blem in the NOS parts in the B in "By Chevrolet" (see above) ....You need the OLD stock to avoid this casting error.Not huge, but the details count. BIG |
Re: front and rear emblems
Thanks for all the tips.
Thanks to Sam I have two of the EARLY NOS ones on the way. This board is great. BTW, I will be selling some of my spare emblems for 69 Z. Almost all were purchased in the 70's when the 28 was still silver. Probably need to wait a couple weeks to sort through all my extra stuff. |
Re: front and rear emblems
We need to see more pics of the Z Lynn! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
