I am looking to duplicate the Ford Safety Gl*** logo (I doubt it exist - but I dunno) ***uming it does not - does anyone have a DXF of the Ford Script? Or an EASY way to duplicate it? To clarify - it's for a 1947 Ford - I ***ume I won't get the entire logo - with the safety gl*** part - but if I can find the 40's script Ford logo - that'd be cool. Thanks
HotRodPrimer - yes very close. MIne just has "FORD Safety Gl***" no other numbers or letters. Is that SCRIPT available in DXF?
Read up on trademark laws. Use is enough to warrant action, even without profit. You will likely be fine, but make sure that you are engaging with informed consent, rather than guessing.
Gimpy , It looks like my only choice will be to cut out that logo and weld it into my new gl***. Can anyone instruct me on the details for welding gl***??? I have a TIG - will that work? Seriously though, Gimpy - I do appreciate your comments.
Those are gl*** etch stencils. You adhere them to your gl***, in the proper location, paint on the etch compound, wait 30 seconds, clean the etch compound off, and then remove the stencil. What you are left with is the logo, etched on your gl***, just like OEM.

What about using some thin shim stock w/ the logo cut out...once you find the correct design to copy.......glued in place and lightly....real lightly...sandblast it ?...I did something similiar that was real small and detailed onto plastic once........I can break gl***.....but not weld it...ha ha ha.......Good luck I know you will come up w/ something....
OK so I made a pattern and had a buddy cut it out. We used a sticker that was laying around - nothing special - just a "paper" type sticker. Since I am NOT a restorer some modifications were in order. This was a test run on the wife's q-tip jar - hopefully she's not too mad <big grin> I think I like the general proportions, but I am planning on thinning everything except the "FORD" script - that looks right to me.
