Anyone ever come across one of these, or know who makes or where to get?

Thanks,

Steve

Hi,

Had one made up by a local sign guy, who does our car's at work, difficult getting the correct font, so had to compromise, went off it so peeled it off

Actually I think that looks rather good.

No, it doesn't look right. The strobe spacing is equal,
on the original TR8 version it's varying between middle and top/bottom...

Did you get any made solid like the original TR7?

I designed these for the back of mine (which is still for sale BTW) but never got round to fitting them. What do you think?

7V8 DHC

I had TR7 V8 made up for my old DHC by a local sign & graphics company, just like John's but in solid font. I thought it looked good. I don't know of anyone who has them for sale though.

Rob, your 3.5 Litre decals in the Speke font (is that the right term for it?) are just like some originals I got a while ago, might have been from James Paddocks. I think they were left over from the early Speke built V8 coupes which of course were initially called TR7V8 by the factory. I haven't put mine on the car either, as it has the later TR8 decals.
