Hi - LOOOVE your panel!! what a color!!

I was recently looking for cool car fonts. Not the ACTUAL ones like you are looking for, but retro ones. This website - well you could be there all day looking and they are all free. I saved off about a hundred just for my own fun. Like Magneto, LittleDeuceCoupe, Hood Ornament, and Airstream. http://www.simplythebest.net/fonts/ is the site.

Also, have you ever been frustrated because you want to SEE what a word will look like in ALL of your fonts? I found a freeware that works so well for this. http://www.groan-zone.net/delphi/font.html. I have Windows 2003, which it's not supposed to work with, but it does. There are tons of them, font testers, though, and you can try tucows.com if you want a newer one.

BTW, my wheels are wheels vintique too - LOVE THEM.

Hey Danny... we used the 3m Double stick tape... I will post some pics in my album of the back side of the emblems after we got the tape installed... we got it from AutoZone... it took some time but We are very pleased with the outcome. The grill decal came from eBay.. would buy from the seller again.... here is the link...

he has it in different colors.. I think Black blue & RED.. Red would look sharp on your panel! =)
He also sells the side emblems in a chrome look decal, but we decided to go with the 3D Original reproductions that are on the HHR.
If you have anymore questions, don't hesitate ask.
Best of Luck with that sharp looking Panel!
