    Hi all, I am building my own shortened and narrowed bed for my 30 ford project, I would like to buy either an old A tailgate or a metal section that has the FORD script embossed into it.thanks!
     
  2. Buy a ford embosed lisence plate (steel) and use it.
     
  3. Old tractor fenders for script, newer valve covers or transmission pans for the oval. Why can't it be scabbed in like a patch panel?

    Oh, it certainly can be sectioned in, I plan to butt weld it into my gabbed up tailgate panel. I like the license plate idea but too thin to weld in and look good in my 18 ga tailgate.
     

  5. I know Model-T and TT trucks have the script on the running boards... probably others.

    I built my own bed, wanted Ford script and ended up buying a new tail gate from Snyder's Antique Auto Parts. Heavy steel, exact copy of origional. They offer 2... (Model A) one is for earlier and one for later years. I foget which is which but I purchased the shortest one for my bed. The 2 years use a different size tail gate. Look them up on line, and call the them...they can give you dimensions. They also have Model T parts so you may want to ask about those too. They are located in New Springfield Ohio, about 15 miles south of Youngstown.
