its not an actual font... an artist did the Trans Am style lettering.... BUT ... There are alot of letters out there since they did it on Firebird, Formula, Trans Am and Ram Air... I used letter from all of those to do Roll Tide in the same style "font" once upon a time. You would just have to get creative try to come up with your own trans am style lettering... since there isn't any H or 6.5 lol

The PONTIAC style font that is on the rear of our cars is an actual font... but doesn't look anywhere near as cool

You could edit the T into an H with ease, but the 6.5 would be the trick. What about MadZ28, or whatever his name is (not on here, the website). He does a CRAPLOAD of vinyl stickers.

Closest available font to the Pontiac font I have found is:

True Type Goodtime

Use it in Bold, Italics

It can be found/viewed and downloaded from this site:

Goodtime Font

Yes that's my stuff. I've been trying to get all the letters made so I can create a font, but I don't have much time to work on it since i'm making decals most of the day. my new website is BadImageGraphics same site just a new look.
