FL Looking for High End "Custom" door emblems - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**RenoKeene** · 01-17-2012, 03:04 PM

One of mine has a broken post, both have very light pitting. Looking for better ones.

**RenoKeene** · 01-17-2012, 05:16 PM

My standards are pretty high for this truck but I would like to find these before I put the door panels back on. Thanks

Brad, if you keep looking... they will come. They are out there somewhere tucked away in someone's attic. While I was doing some digging for another NOS gmc emblem, I just came across this pair of NOS (eye candy) customs. These have been ratholed since a 97 GM parts lot/group purchase, this set was in with the nos parts stash for my 69 custom but I will keep looking as I think I had another set of these somewhere and if so you just maybe in luck.

**RenoKeene** · 02-15-2012, 11:18 AM

^^That's what I'm looking for.......

**RenoKeene** · 02-16-2012, 01:32 PM

Going to have to button this thing up soon so look thru your stash.......

**RenoKeene** · 02-17-2012, 11:55 AM

Still looking...

72GMCK-2500 · 02-17-2012, 12:13 PM

Man you are having bad luck in finding these, i have a set of custom camper emblems and the custom is seperate from camper. But there is a 1971 gmc in a junkyard up my way with decent set of custom emblems. theres no pitting just light scratches. i dont know if you could rechrome them or not. i might go up there this weekend and ill take some pic for you.

**RenoKeene** · 02-21-2012, 03:16 PM

Would consider buying Custom Camper emblems to get what I'm looking for....

**DaHos** · 02-21-2012, 06:55 PM

Got this one, I could not even see the tiny pin pits till I zoomed the camera in to 10x with the flash.

Sure, PM me for payment.

**Classic Bowties** · 02-23-2012, 02:05 PM

Per my earlier reply in post #10, after looking on and off over the past week I did find my other set of stashed away GM nos customs. I will go out and get you some pics. Mel

**Classic Bowties** · 02-23-2012, 03:43 PM

Your heading says High End... well here they be, one GM new old stock set of upper door customs. Both are in gleaming condition, if you look at the flat mat that they are setting on you can see the "Custom" reflection. The repro's, while they were available went for $65.-$75. each so these should be worth $100. each. Let me know, Mel

**CC69Rat** · 02-23-2012, 04:05 PM

Reno - if you want these, I'll give you $20 for the one you got from DaHos, .. or just pay him. I'm thinking you'll want the NOS ones (?) I could use the other one for my 70 GMC. .. just throwing it out there for you.

**DaHos** · 02-23-2012, 05:39 PM

Just let me know who wants it..............D'

Hey Chad, I actually need two sets (which I now have), I will have one single left and you are welcome to it but I would like to get my hands on all them before i decide which one to let go of. I'll let you know.
Thanks, Brad
