Shop truck doors - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I am thinking about having something written on the doors of my 69 GMC in shop truck style.

67ChevyRedneck · 05-22-2007, 05:07 PM

I guess I'd take #2, but to even it out some, I'd use the half circle like your doing, but put "NORM'S" on top and "GARAGE" below the GMC symbol so it make's a circle....

or put a fake phone # below it... something to even it out...

My 2 cents

LUV2XCLR8 · 05-22-2007, 05:13 PM

I agree w/ Redneck, a phony number would round it out

northerngmc · 05-22-2007, 05:15 PM

Thanks, do you mean like this?

By the way my rally wheels have arrived and once I have looked at the brakes I might just be on the road!

northerngmc · 05-22-2007, 05:30 PM

Another!

LUV2XCLR8 · 05-22-2007, 05:37 PM

Like the last one, excpet curv the number up like a smiley, jmho

I suggest "Zumo" here on the board, he can whip you up a cool logo and is decent on pricing I believe.

Not that there is anything wrong with the one's you have so far, but he might have access to alot more graphics etc.

Just a thought

IS that a phone number from the 60's?

I like em" all

really but I might as well add my .02

I say flatten the arch alittle on the Norm's Garage and make tha logo alittle bigger and put the fake number or something else under it. I personally like those little catch phrases on shop truck logos like Smoky Yunick's(sp?) "Best damn shop in town" or some thing that fits you.

I say go with a 3 or 4 digit phone number underneath like in the old days. At least thats how the numbers were around here. (arkansas)

GREASEMONKEY72 · 05-23-2007, 03:00 AM
