Not sure what year it came off of. I was thinking mid 60's but don't know. Maybe early 70's.


I was looking up some other stuff for someone else that overlapped this.  It's from a 1964 Chevy.  It was the only year of that badge.

Very cool! Thanks  :beers: I didn't know it was a single year thing. Pretty cool! I saw one while watching American Restoration on TV last night. But it was in the distance.

Here is a group shot.
So if these 3 would get into a knock down drag out fight, who would win?

The only other companies to have a truck back then was Studabaker, GMC...  A rare one would be a Mercury.  Although your Ram guy is probably 30-40 years younger then the other two.

Very true. When looking for Dodge emblems the vintage stuff was just to large for the scale I wanted. Plus I already had the Dodge badge. But if I had found a RAM emblem or some other emblem I would have bought it.

Thinking down the road of doing a rising sun or Euro collection. A muscle car line would be cool too. It's endless really.
My brother is wanting a VW Bot. He is gonna send me some stuff from his bug leftovers.

Just finished this Jack Rabbit for my Aunt. He's about 3 foot tall.

It looks good.  How do you get the metal so clean?

I had the spring sand blasted. The rest I used a wire wheel on a drill and a paint removing nylon disk on a drill. That paint disk is awesome. It removes about anything without leaving grinding marks. The only thing that really works for mill scale on hot rolled steel.
