Default Reproduction Decals

I thought you might want to know!!
I ordered 2 1969 396-375 hp decals for emission
for my chevelle.The price for the
decals was $ 4.00 each.
I purchased then from JIM OSBORN REPRODUCIONS
in Lawrenceville,GA
The taxes were $0.00
The Deals were $ 8.00
Handling was $ 12.00 Just to put it in a envelope and post it.

Try this guy, his name is Bruce Levy and he sells out of Ottawa Ont. FWIW, I think he gets most of his resto. decals from Jim Osborn.

I've use these guys. They have the most accurate reproductions of decals in the universe. They will even replicate your existing decal if you can get it to them. The Osborne stuff is nowhere near as accurate as the decals from ECS.

There will be a seller at G.M.Carlisle (probably many of the Carlisle events) inside under the grandstand that is a HUGE Jim Osborn distributor.

He sells at list price or slightly below. No tax, no shipping at Carlisle

If any interest here I'll try and find his business card and contact info.....

Rich puts together a terrific chasis package made to match the codes you provide him from YOUR buildsheet, plus a sheet describing the placement of each one. All at a very affordable price. Oh yea, and they're not made out of paper and the printing doesn't wash off

Most places sell Osborn decals. Other than air cleaner and foil engine decals you have to be careful. Most are close but not exact.

ECS has stuff for B, E, & F bodies not much listed for Novas.

I am able to cover most all of the Nova Decals from 68-70 including the VIN cert and correct jacking instructions. I am also working the rubber stamps and maybe soon the TH400 tags.

That's quite the understatement. Here is the Osborn version (on top) of my original 1972 T/A 455HO emissions sticker. I could list at least a hundred things that are wrong about it (fonts, images, sizes, graphics...) When I told them about some of the major issues, they never bothered to respond.





Here's a shot of my original (on top) and the ECS version. This was a prototype they made prior to the final version. They said the GM emissions decals are rather difficult to make as GM used over a dozen different fonts in their labels. (Osborn uses one) I couldn't find any imperfections in the prototype but they said they did. They ended up charging me nothing to make the decal since they didn't have my version in their archive and they needed it. And they even provided me with several new decals as well as sending the original back to me.
