I am making reproduction emblems for TBirds and Cougars. The first emblem out is the very hard to find "EFI-Turbo" emblem from the front fenders and dash of the 83 and 84 Turbo Coupes. I am holding the first one out of the mold (and through the chrome platers) right now.
We do have to make a small adjustment to the mold, but the final versions (that will be constantly available) should be out in 2-5 weeks. Pricing should be fairly equal to that of good quality METAL emblems (yes, my repo's are metal instead of plastic) at about $15/piece.
The next few items are the early-83 TC only door panel "Birds", the 87-88 "Thunderbird" and "Turbo Coupe" trunk script, and the 87-88 c-pillar "Bird".
These are MUCH nicer then the factory plastic emblems, and will really dress up the car.
If you have any questions, or are interested in these, please post up or shoot me an email.
Thanks!

Still working on them. The supplier is hand-making the molds so it takes time, but that's how we're able to do them so cheap. I guess I could throw the pictures of the prototypes up though, huh?

Here are shots of the PROTOTYPE emblems.
The original emblems are plastic, these are made of metal. I have to clean up one of each perfect to be used as the mold basis of the PRODUCTION versions.
These will be the first two TBird/Cougar Emblems made (the 83-86 "EFI_Turbo" fender script, and the 83 TC door panel "Bird", since they can both easily be adapted to other projects).
Note that the bottom EFI_Turbo emblem is CHROME PLATED. This is how the final production emblems will come. The proper black painting will be optional (at no charge) so you can have the option of custom painting them, or solid chrome.
These are handmade out of Florida. We will be aiming for UNDER $20 each on the finished, chrome plated emblems. That's very competitive price with other PLATED and METAL emblems on the market for other cars.
Any questions?
