Re: old chevrolet logo font

i think the best dam logo chevy had was what they used on the valve covers of the 57 injected and non-injected (?) engines. They also may have used them in 56?

People had more creativity back then. What has happened to society?

Oh sorry, i just re-read the question; You're looking for fonts, not opinions on different logos.

You might try the different custom font websites; Most give the fonts away for free and some actually match what you're looking for.

Re: old chevrolet logo font

Look at valve covers for tri-five`s, and also the script on the front fenders of a 55 210. The tri-five cars had some of the best script, I think.

I take that back. I was thinking you were looking for the font pictured on the valve cover above. That's what I think of with "old chevy logo". Sorry.
