Since the original is more for a round air filter lid.

But 1 or 2 clicks and it's Curved.

Very nice A&P. The one I posted was based on a 69 Z28 breather sticker. A member here( can't recall who) photoshopped it to the 2.0 theme.
I like the rectangle one you posted. Might have to see about getting some made up.

Runs smooth as silk. That motor was sent out and fully rebuilt and restored. Was run before it went back in the 55 at the Shop.

All the proper care has been taken to preserve it's cureent condition up until the car is done.


Once Morticias transformation (Supercharger and Cammed Ported Head install) is completed I will be back on the '55's Restoration.

Got totally sidetracked with this little HHR Panel of mine.

And I can't afford to do Both cars at the same time. (Wish I could.)

Wanna make a Donation????

This is just a Fake Company, just made it up, for a Logo Design that would typically go on a van or pick up truck door or larger on the side of a van.

And this is an Old Sign from the Chicago area, I found a small article on "Chicago Style Signs" and this was one of them, it was a Faded out old sign in the pic.

I'm just playing around reproducing it with my own touches to it. Most of it is still in rough draft, just getting the basic shapes and wording in place then will choose fonts and edit other parts.

So I reworded it to fit My application and added a Naughty word.
