j scott Posted August 12, 2018 Report Posted August 12, 2018 Has anyone found someone or a business that reproduces the Job-Rated emblem for the fenders? Quote
Reg Evans Posted August 13, 2018 Report 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
HotRodTractor Posted August 15, 2018 Report 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

I actually have a pair...if nothing else, but I'd need 'em back in good shape. Quote
JBNeal Posted August 15, 2018 Report Posted August 15, 2018 If only there was a way to scan them electronically with a scale for reference... Quote
ggdad1951 Posted August 15, 2018 Report 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

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 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
