Re: '65 Chevy C10 Long Fleet Retrospective Build Thread

Once I started paying closer attention to 64-66 trucks at shows, I noticed that there was alot of restored trucks that still had shabby looking body tags mounted on the kick panel. The one for this truck had been masked over when we had the body blasted and the tape pulled off alot of the ink. I won't give away any details, but I found a way to fairly accurately reproduce the body tags.


Old tag with rough draft of new tag design:





First one I made. Wasn't happy with the super-shiny back ground as it didn't match the original tag's sheen.





Sprayed with satin clear:
