Getting new VIN label?

I will need to replace the driver door on my 1979 F-250, so i will need to get or make a new VIN label. Does anyone know of a place (since I don't work at a body shop) that I can get a new VIN label from or potentially know the correct font to create one in Microsoft word and print it out on a vinyl sheet with my wife's cricut machine?

Search for Kevin Marti. I believe he can provide those. He can probably get you a build-sheet too.

Warranty Plate riveted to the left door face below the latch // Certification Label glued to the left B pillar below the striker plate.

Both are available from martiauto.com

You could transfer your original Warranty Plate to the replaced door, Marti has the correct rivets.

Thanks guys. I looked around and all I could find was places that only served body shops and wanted like $200 for a new VIN sticker. So this is great. Thanks a lot. Nice to know he has the correct rivets too cause I was having a hard time finding those as well.

Definitely don't print one out in Microsoft Word. The likelihood of the law man seeing it are low, but if they do, they'll have a field day. Here in PA that's a straight to jail offense.

This is a Marti reproduction Warranty Plate for my '73 F100.

Special rivets for warranty plate. No special tools required.

The Marti certification sticker. Mines a '73, I think the '79's are a little different.
