[GMCnet] Question for the Group [message #67566] |

I have been told that whoever was selling the reproduction model logos
("Palm Beach", etc) was
no longer doing that. I have started to create the artwork for those
logos on my own.
1) Who is/was supplying them? (are they still?)
2) Is there a need for another source, if they still are?
I have a small vinyl cutter and have the ability to cut these in small lots.
I can also re-produce the logos in other than factory colors, so if you
re-paint,
I can give you the logo in your choice of colors.
I am still exploring this, but so far, I have done Eleganza (and SE),
Royale, Birchaven
and Canyon Lands. I am working on Sequoia now. I also have done the GMC
letters
for the front and back of 73's and 74's. The first batch of these is in
wear tests on
Jack Kincaid's Royale. I am using outdoor vinyl.
If you have some other model and would like new ones, let me know.
(There is NO WAY I can make profit from this, I just hope to break even, it
takes between 4 and 10 hours to create usable artwork from a photo)

As far as I know Tom Hampton at Grandview Motorhomes still had the
decals and logos.

I also did the Eleganza stripe kit for my coach (2 tape sizes with the gold pinstripes in them, the end caps and the dog leg curves for the front wrap around) as well as the "Eleganza II" logo, the 260 logo and the GMCs on the gold backing. I had a computer graphics place scan them and I posted pics on this site of the finished project. I think my cost would be around $750 for a kit with all of the tape and decals for 1 26'. I wanted mine to be decals like the OEM so I went this route over painting.
