I wouldn't sweat it Patrick, as yours will always be an oiginal, and the rest would just be reproductions. Just reproductions of a similar design would be so much better looking than the drab black plates we have now. I'm sure some experimenting with stamping tools would yield a similar style stamping font. Interesting to see if anyone decides to reproduce this piece. Never realized it could just as easily be reproduced like on the stinless steel labels. I'd for sure buy three! -Joe O'Brien 2524, 16634, 16851 --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Patrick C." <PRC1216@xxxx> wrote: > > I don't plan to assist in the reproduction of this VIN tag, the sole > reason being it would lower the value of the blank original tag that I > have. > > If anyone is interested in purchasing the (what might be the last in > existance) real deal, shoot me an email at PRC1216(at)aol.com.
