CST Lettering? For The CST Gurus.. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am getting some decals made by the local Auto Trim Design. I gave them my CST/10 emblem and asked them to make me some decals for above the rear marker lights. I also want a band that goes across below the rear window. It's going to be a negative that says "CUSTOM SPORT TRUCK" but I don't think I have ever seen what this looks like in the CST emblem lettering. I am not even sure they have written it out in that font. Anyways, The designer sent me these ideas. I think the 2nd band looks the best and the second "CST" looks the best.

So my question is: if chevy ever wrote it out, does anyone have a picture of Custom Sport Truck spelled out in the CST font?

Possibly in a brochure?

I've never seen it spelled out other than on a SPID. I'd just have them use the font of the emblem. I like the dash emblem font.

Yeah the thing is it's a custom font that he's never seen. So he came up with those for ideas. I'm not looking for exact, just similar.

Go to a sign company with artistic ability. Almost doesn't get it when there are people who can give you just what you want. I have a friend here who has been a sign painter for about 40 years. He also does vinyl and wraps just to stay competitive. A guy like him can give you what those pull it off the computer sticker makers can't. I'm sure there are shops like his in your neck of the woods. Or,I can give you his info so you can have him do it. He can not only hand design the letters,he can do accents,highlights,and details with brush or airbrush,too.
