GM generally frowns on you using pictures from their media (brochure pictures, etc.), but I've never seen them go after a club for their own pictures ...

I saw one on ebay, so I bought it, mine has no red left in it, it's all faded. Got the emblem, it's very nice. Then I looked at the job, what a pain. I looked for some articles and I see that I need some pal nuts and double sided tape.

Where can I get pal nuts? And what kind of tape would work best? I know the double sided tape goes behind the center section but is the outer ring secured with anything?


From memory, so other folks can correct me. I was able to re-use the nuts that were on the old emblem. Nothing holds the outer ring, just the center section is taped.

Be careful not to drop the nuts into the innards of the hood (don't ask me why I know about this ).

Really? You'll have a group of Corvettes here?
Tell me more. :thumbleft:


Should be (I'm totally guessing) between 75 and 150, with a lot of 1958s (since it's their 50th anniversary year). There will be old and new 'Vettes that have been driven from all over the US - last year someone drove a 1957 from California to Boston. I'll be there in my 1985, since the road tour is part of the next NCRS award I'm going for. I believe it's Saturday, July 19th, but not everything has been planned out yet ...

I believe that they're not allowed to use it as part of a station promotion - this is why consumer electronics dealers always say something like "get your new TV in time for the Big Game".

That's how trademark law works; if you don't protect it you don't have it any more ...

Too true! They actually made more blue two-tones than light blue metallics in 1985 ...

... there was a two tone blue 1985 at the NCRS National Convention this year. Sharp car - had the cloth sports seats.
