1966 F250 4x4 Fender Emblems Say "Four Wheel Drive"

So its clear . . The Red Twin I Beam F100 is a NOS part. All the rest are one's I produce. I was just trying to get the word out to those that needed them.
If I had to pay each and every place they were posted I could not afford to make them. With 1000's of $$ already invested in something nobody else makes and how cheap I was selling them vs cost to make I will find another avenue to get the word out.
I simply made them because there was no other source in the world that did. Especially with the effort and expense I put into these. It has consumed months of my life and borrowed $$ to do. Only to get shut down by one of the places I thought could get the word out. Not giving up but will find other sources to market them.

Hood Insert | Dennis Carpenter Ford Restoration Parts
...were probably made by the owner of Carolina Classics. He used to make the Camper Special inserts, too, but they were such slow sellers that once he ran out he decided not to make any more. This is one of the reasons Boss made some of the Camper Special ones, among others.
My buddy that has a 4x4 F250 truck like mine had a couple sets made up at a local sign shop years ago and recently gave me one of those sets since he knew he would never use them. Not quite up to the standards of the work Boss did, but it does the trick for my one truck. Might be something for you to look into and show them the picture from the Dennis Carpenter web site? One possibility anyway.

I did make them in both Red and Black.
Being so busy with my own projects it simply got to be a hassle shipping them. I would always say up front I shipped once per week. It’s a 90 min trip to PO and back and charged less than cost to ship.
It was not worth my time to spend 90 min each time someone wanted a pair. It was easier to stop shipping.
Keep remaining like these for future projects. It took me a full year to develop them.
10 people did custom orders and not one of those 10 people responded when I said I was ready to ship.
It cost me far more for ones I kept than what I sold others for. Many were happy to have them but 50% thought overpriced.
A few of ones I have now.

Only way I will sell them at this time if someone is local. Shipping more of a hassle than it was worth.
I am no longer making them as of well over a year ago. various pairs left.
Yes the 250 Bezels I have are 1965 & 1966
In process of selling any and all parts not used for current projects. Getting too old n worn out to continue much longer.
If you still need a pair let me know.
