Some of you may know that USA cars have small tags with the VIN/Chassis number on various parts of the car.

When the cars get painted they come off and they age with time.

We've been asked to make some (obviously there's the requirement to see some sort of proof of ownership before i do this this)

Very fiddly to do as there is not a specific font for them !

Here's a set that we've just sent out to the USA

a pair of John Clark Aberdeen number plates. Note the Alpina roundel in place of the BMW one.

Image

The owner of the car has also ordered a tax disc shield for the front and dealer window sticker for the back

the OEM ones are on the right but as its going onto John Clark supplied Alpina he's asked for a John Clark version incorporation the Sytners Alpina versions as well

What would be a nice addition to the website , is a guide with pics and measurements maybe on placement of the stickers

They are a great finishing touch to a car

Anyone got pics of exact where the service stickers go ? Door shut and the boot one ?

We are working on that and it will be on the new web site with an updated cart.

The problem is that there is not set location for the decals, they vary from year to year as they were all placed by hand on the production line

For example the high voltage warning can be on the turret or further down on the wheel arch

We do have lots of library photos to use as reference points. If someone wants to forward us photos that they own and giving us permission to use them on the web site then that would be great.

Similar

Some of the USA Spec cars had larger ones in the engine bay with bar codes as well

I'll post up an example later that we have just completed

I see , ive got the full set I think everything as when new, just doing some finishing to the bay over the next 10 days and then il put the last of the bsy stickers in and il take pics of the lot and send them to you and if you want you can use them to show how a whole set of your stickers, plates, screen stickers, ax holder etc all look on a restored car , they do look great and always attract comments when people look at the car

No, because you would just ignore it, start a 6 page thread on it and stick it in the wrong place anyway :D

The actual export disc can be done but its a question of how accurate and detailed you want it. it would be priced as an hourly job and dare i say it thats got a fair few hours in it

is that the only photo you have ?
