Need MFG Logos

[Fenderman]

Hi: I just bought a 1966 Edinboro that is missing the MFG logos on each side. Does anyone have any from this era or know where I can find them? Thanks.

Nice work. Unfortunately, I don't even have one to work from. I guess I'll watch for a used one or two.

I have a 1975 mfg Gypsy & I'm looking for a set of logos for mine also. I had a line on a set, but the boat was sold. As you can see mine are broke.

Hehe...sort of. The owner is a bit cantankerous. So, I'm not to quick to recomemend them. It's usually best to go up and look around. Calling ahead is ok, if he's in a good mood.

Ps Pete, I pm'ed you

I e-mailed him & he said he didn't have any. If anyone knows where I can find a set please let me know. I know I've got a while before the ice melts on the lakes here in Michigan, but I hate to wait till the last minute. As it is I have some maintance to do on her. New impeller, check gas tank float & pickup, rework my ladder & put new light switch in to name a few. For those of you that still have boating weather, ENJOY IT!

I'm still looking for the MFG logos. So far no luck. Any help would be appreciated. On another note we are expecting 12 inches of snow in the next few days here in Michigan. I think Woosterken is going to get nailed too. Woosterken is your boat stored inside?

Can't wait for summer!

Re: Need MFG Logos

Woosterken,
I don't have any of the pieces to glue together, so I guess I'll just keep looking or HOPE that someone on this forum can help me out. By the way that link didn't work. As for the snow, at least we don't live in the northeast. I bet they would be happy to get "just" a foot of snow.

Might be easier and cost effective to have a decal made.
Mount it on fiberglass cut to the shape.

Un-less this is a show boat, then the judge will take off points

Well it's early May & I've searched on the internet all winter & still no luck finding my MFG logos.
I'm almost ready to take her out. Any ideas.

Re: Need MFG Logos

I have the same problem. I plan on getting an emblem molding kit & making 2 of each then cutting 1 apart to fill in missing areas, make another mold of the complete emblem.

Re: Need MFG Logos
