Getting ready to start my next project and was wondering if anyone knows of an aftermarket vendor that has plain old '69 Chevy C/10 front fender emblems.  PE or resin.  I'm backdating a '70 MPC C/10 Custom to a '69 stripper C/10.

Thanks

I could have sworn someone made photo etched emblems for the earlier ('64-'66) c/10s but as usual my search came up empty. I honestly don't know how Hobbylinc search works no matter what you type in you get 25 pages of tanks and warplanes.  ????????????????

I don’t know how accurate you want to be, but you could either print a downsized photo. Photo paper would be thick enough.? Or try to scratch build a set. Pretty darn tiny though.? I did it for these Willys stampings, but they were all straight cuts.

Those wouldn't really work anyway.  To my knowledge the '69 and '70 C/10's had the same, or real similar, fender emblems.  I'm looking for just the C/10 itself...  no bowtie or "custom" or "cst".  I'll likely have to make up some decals as I've searched and searched.

I was replying to Mike C about the 64-66 emblems.  The C/10 emblem photos you posted Greg are what I need.  Thanks

I've used card stock a number of times for license plates and it works good.  That's a good suggestion for these emblems.

Would it be possible to cast a mold of the CST that you have on the side of the truck, make a resin replacement with that mold and only use the C, leaving off the ST?

Might have been worth a try but they're already gone ;)
