Thanks guys. I called YDOC462 (Cody) this morning and he is going to send me his set. They have the chrome off and are in primer. I have the mold making silicone to pull a mold off with. Gotta spray more high build primer on them to "bulk up" a little as to compensate for shrinkage in the casting material.

I can sandcast reproductions and polish or have plated if I wait till highschool starts up this fall. Metals class teacher said to drop off emblems for the kids to cast.

REV. Ronnie is looking into this also so I'm gonna see what he comes up with over the summer.

I have lots of black casting resin I use to cast door latch pieces for a restoration supplier of old Chevy cars.
I'm going to make some plastic emblems for the students if it comes to that.

Don't know about copyright laws so I gotta be carefull.

I was fortunate enough to get a pair of "new old stock" emblems from Howard Pipcorns' best friend (Driver) for $150.00 ea. I believe he had three left and we got two.

Keep an eye on E-bay also. There is a way on ebay to get notified if a set gets listed. The ones I had cast in high school metals shop didn't turn out good enough for my high standards so I made a rapper necklace with it and gave to Phil Blomquist.
