Default Fender Emblems

I'd really like to replace my 283 fender emblems with 376 ones. Does anyone know if anyone is making a replacement metal screw stud ones?

Thanks,
Jay

I haven't seen a 376 chrome-type, screw in emblem, resembling the 283 type.
However, Classic Industries does offer stick-on engine displacement numbers.
You can create your own displacement, and the numbers are quality items.

I have them...'346'

Thanks Glenn, yeah I’m looking for the 64-67 style of connected numbers. They make them for 454’s, 502’s and 383’s. But I haven’t seen anywhere that someone is make them for the LS motors yet.

You might could send those designs to someone that makes one-off billet parts and they can make something in polished aluminum that would look nice.

It's been 10 years since I used these guys, but they made some one-off billet parts for the interior of my s10, maybe they can come up with something.

^^ good idea, & perhaps they could chrome them for you. Or, you could have them chromed, yourself.

Classic industries does have 376 emblems:

I have been wanting to do custom engine size on my '69 Nova fender marker lights for a while but haven't found anybody doing them.


I guess I could machine off the existing numbers and then stick on some new ones. But I'm thinking it just won't look very good.

I just emailed billetandacrylic to see what they can do.

376 insignia-good to know!
It can be a tough call....to try and retain the style of the original numbers.
In the same way, I'm still trying to find a suitable "LS1" insignia. There are several different versions...none of which I prefer.
