GP dash emblem

Does anyone have a close up image of a GP dash emblem with the number 9 in it? I can't find a suitable font that matches the GP numbering. I have something planned for my own car.

Here it is, sorry its on an iPhone and its dark. Sure you don't want photo of the sticker on top drivers side?








Guess iPhone don't like close-ups? I try better ones tomarrow.

It's ok, don't go out of your way. I could work with it.

How'd you get the dash signed?

Sweet, thanks.

This is kind of rough, but you see what I'm going for. I consider my car a GT car since my mods have made it into a great highway car. I wanted to emulate the GP logo and add an air of exclusivity. In the new emblem is my car's build date, because I thought it cool to include.

John Cooper's signature on the dash, is not "thee" John Cooper, it's that of John Cooper's son, "John" Michael Cooper, "thee" John Cooper died in 2000. Mike Cooper signed several Monterey Pick-Ups (Laguna Seca), and thanks to Jim&Sherry mine was signed. I'm sure he (Mike) really practiced his sig to look exactly like his dads John, Sr.
