Looking For Nice Set of Original M U S T A N G Trunk Letters

[69convert 11]

Looking for a really nice set of original 1969 M U S T A N G trunk letters.  Need a full set with all the pins intact and not bent.  Also, no pits, gouges or scratches. 

Thanks.

My original set was relatively nice but they needed new chrome. After looking into the cost, I went with a repro set with pins (not the stick-on kind) and was pleasantly surprised. All the pins but one lined up well with the holes in the deck lid. I worked the one that didn't fit with a file and it worked out well. Something you may want to look into, as a really nice set of originals may be hard to find.

Not the best photo but here they are...

Thanks Phil.  Can you tell me what brand of repro set you used? I have heard the Scott Drake set has multiple issues.

Are they all the same regardless of body style ?

It's been several years, I will look tonight to see if I have any record of when and where I bought them.

Pretty sure they are.

Thanks Phil! I appreciate it.

Well, I looked through my big box o' paper tonight and couldn't find a receipt for them. More than likely I picked them up at a swap meet a long, long time ago

It looks like Scott Drake is the only supplier these days and like you said, they get mixed reviews (I looked). I don't think mine were Scott Drake but I really can't remember and I guess it doesn't matter anyway.

Sorry I can't be more help. I guess you could re-chrome some OEM, or go stick-on, or take a chance on a $16 set that might be crooked.

You could try and contact Tony Branda, not sure what make these are.

Thanks for taking the time to look Phil. I got (what  I am hoping is) a pretty clean set of original's on eBay.  Hopefully they will work.

Thanks unilec. I will also call Branda's and see who makes the set he sells.

No problem. Good luck, a little buffing and those should work. Report back on the fit if you can.

Thanks, Bob. That pic almost makes my hack paint job look nice :)

A good pic is worth a thousand dollars. Even my 20 year old cheap paint job can look good in a pic.
