Default Another run of radiator labels?

You can read about the original run waaaay back in 2004 (minus lost pictures)

https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...or-labels.html

Well I decided I would give the company a call and see if they could still make them, well despite the fact they had been acquired and I did not have the part numbers they managed to find them and they are still order able. Minimum run is 25 and that would come in at approx $20-25 for all 3 once shipping, paypal fees etc are accumulated.

A reason I looked into this is I had to replace my radiator some years back and as I sold out last time I had no spares

Of course there are more options available now so not sure if there is still any demand but thought I would post and see.

Below are screen prints of the labels, dimensions are 4"x1.5" and 8"x1.75"

I am interested in two sets. I thought they were gold/bronze in color. Does the MY make a difference?

Count me in for a set if they will be ''gold'' like the OE ones. I need a set for my GT.

My apologies on the construction of the label as I should have added more detail but it was in the original thread, these are made by a safety label company so no issues with longevity or high temperatures They are robust as others who bought originals can atest too.

They are yellow as shown NOT gold, I remember asking for a gold type of material and you would not want to pay the price .. probably about $20 a label.

I will add some pics of the labels from my old radiator tonight if that helps clarify.

I agree, and would take two sets at least.

$20 each for the gold ones is cheap so I would buy a few.
I will also have 5 sets of the yellow please.

Only if I get enough interest, I would need to create another label with the min order criteria.

I'd be happy to pay the upcharge for the shiny gold foil finish on the two larger labels. Two sets please. I'll speculate for others that if someone is interested enough to want the labels, they aren't going squeemish over the cost difference. Let me know when they are ready and how to pay.

Thanks!

You better buy a lot more than that, cause you know you are going to need them, just on your own parking lot coaters.
