Grille lettering needed
I was going to put my FORD letters on my 62 unibody project truck, but realized the old ones aren’t all that good. I found some on Concours parts, C2TZ-8316-S, but they are probably available from other online sources. Has anyone purchased a set anywhere that seems pretty good quality?

My guess is that, like many reproduction parts, all the vendors are selling the same ones. The market is a niche, small market, without the numbers to support very many manufacturers for these trucks.

1962-1964 all used the same lettering. 1965-1966 are also the same as each other, but of course different than the earlier years.
It took a little doing and a little time, but I went this route. Just bought the truck last year so it isn't impossible to find them, but the NOS ones are getting less common.
C2TZ-8311-A - "F" - includes attaching parts
C2TZ-8318-A - "O"
C2TZ-8320-A - "R"
C2TZ-8322-A - "D"

I think most all the repop ones are made by Dennis Carpenter. I like buying from C&G Ford parts because they ship same day and prices are good. I purchased some several years ago, no complaints on the quality. https://cgfordparts.com/grille-panel...YaAhu3EALw_wcB
