My custom "ford" emblem for LS1 swaps.
 
Well here is my very first one to make. I accidentally broke it while polishing, I learned a lot though. I will be making one more for the front and it will turn out alot better than this one.

Here it is:

Let me know what ya think.

The "S" needs work... I think the idea would be to make it look very close to the normal blue oval badge..

Cool idea, I may be interested in buying the final product.

i say make it a capital S but it looks pretty decent so far.

It's in the closest font to ford I could find. Ford only used one capital letter and that is the "F" that's the reasoning for the "s" being lowercase.

i agree, capital s would look way better, although that one looks good also
:D

Can you mock one of each.. with lower and upper case.. also with the standard LS1 letters..

Then we can all vote on it ! :D

yaeh i understand wanting to stay close, but it doesnt fit IMO for a 3 lettered phrase, with a big "1" at the end. i agree, do it both ways, and post it up for a vote.


so do you have an LS ford swap coming up/done?

bjamick 08-24-2009 03:09 PM

Yep, I'm right in the middle of an iron block LS1 93 coupe build. I have a thread, but haven't done enough to call for an update yet.

Ill see what a capital S looks like, but I doubt it will look better in that particular font.

I've been trying to make Ford emblems too. They're fun to make. I make them out of billet aluminum. Here is couple that I made for some friends. Let
me know what you think
