Reg Evans Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) I wasn't aware that the fenders had JOB RATED emblems. Can you post a photo ? Oh wait ….maybe on the C series trucks Edited August 13, 2018 by Reg Evans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotRodTractor Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 Do you have one good emblem that can be copied? I have the means to make it happen, but it would probably take a few of them to get the cost down. Are those hard to come by? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have a pair...if nothing else, but I'd need 'em back in good shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBNeal Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 If only there was a way to scan them electronically with a scale for reference... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggdad1951 Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 I actually have the "Job - Rated" logo as a dxf file that could be scaled. Used it to make this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have 3D scanning technology. I can scan directly and make a point cloud and ultimately make a 3D model.... but for this it best to make a silicone mold directly from the part. 9 hours ago, ggdad1951 said: I actually have a pair...if nothing else, but I'd need 'em back in good shape. Are they different side to side? If you can just give me some rough dimensions and maybe a weight I can run numbers and see what it would cost. Essentially take the originals, make a silicone mold from them, make wax models from the silicone, and use the wax to do some lost wax casting and finish up with some plating (which I need to check to see if I still have a resource for...).

ggdad1951 Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 same both sides, so that's a plus. I'll dig them out this weekend (in a box somewhere) and get sizes and weights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
