I just recently met an individual that owns his own machine shop and has some of the most amazing equipment I have ever seen, we were talking about my logo and LITERALLY within minutes he makes this on 1/8th plexiglass:

http://www.lincolnmotorsport.com/cs1a.jpg

http://www.lincolnmotorsport.com/cs1b.jpg



Then he tells me that he can make ANYTHING out of ANYTHING with this logo!!!!!!!!!!!!

So if YOU ARE SERIOUS about some 2.5 inch emblems made of polished aluminum, these will be beveled and look exactly like our decal file.
Step up to the plate and chime in with how many you would like. Again this being produced will fall on YOU and how many are in demend.

Also we can make "Showboards" with the CobraStar along with your board name or car name on plexiglass, ANYTHING you want just name it and he can do it.

I'm there. I'd like to put some acrylic double face tape on the back and then trim out the insides. That would make one nice emblem for the side windows or just behind the front wheelwells.

These will be L&R sets just like the facory Ford ones. You have to buy them in SETS of 2 !

I need a final count.
Ill let this run for a week and see if these will even come to life. EVERYONE wanted emblems we will see HOW BAD they are really wanted.

SC_Steve
November 17th, 2004, 10:38 AM
so Geno... are these going to look like the cobra fender emblums but just with a lincoln star? Or are they going to be more like an intake plaque? I think that logo would look real sharp on the fenders depending on how it's done.

thanks
-Steve

edit... it would be sharp if you added "281 DOHC" centered under the logo too

SC_Steve
November 17th, 2004, 10:46 AM
sorry for the double post... put Geno, have you thought about making these logos to go in place of the lincoln logo on the trunk lid key hole cover?

ONEBADMK8

In the works as far as the trunk emblems go. The file is as it looks in the pic I posted, it will be cut out and beveled with relief.

More or likely $40.00 a set I guess, somewhere in that range?

November 17th, 2004, 02:24 PM
I know what they say opinions are like (and that everybody has one) and I'm kind of new around here but I'll chime in anyway. I think that this is really cool and would look great as a door emblem but 2.5" seems too small, at least for my Blackwood. I would think that 3.5" or 4" would work better. Also, how about one that would replace the star emblem on the top of the front grill. Count me in, at any rate. Also, I'm planning on adding a blower to my truck soon. Something like this would look cool on the blower case. Are these done on a C&C machine?

StraDog
November 17th, 2004, 02:26 PM
I'm In..... I was going to tell you to make these, but your one step ahead.

I tried making one to use in a custom grill, but never found a good enough size star for the cobra emblem, this will work now...

I'll take a set !

Mine is too, I think they all are. Ever see how much new ones go for on eBay? They usually pull in 50 bids.

Geno, do you have any ideas for usage? I think placing them on the fender is a little ricey for me... since I have a stock engine. Maybe a more subtle placement?

I will not have a solid price until I get an accurate idea of hoe many will need to be produced for the first run. I said around $40.00 a set. Then once they are made other sizes will NOT be a problem, wheel caps, trunk emblems, etc.

i dont know but i do know this if its got a dohc 4.6 its a cobra maybe not as hyped up maybe not as fast (although i blew some kid with an "official" cobras doors off they other night ) its a cobra motor if you took 98 cobra stuff from anyone who is making it the stuff would bolt right up to your car.
same with 97 to 97,96 to 96 and so on.

There will be no color. They will be high polished aluminum. Once they are made they can be made into ANYTHING at nearly ANY size, so yes the caps and trunk emblems will be covered as well as key chains and all too.

I've been on a lamp cover kick all week. Just an idea, custom (Marchal aftermarket) LMS CobraStar fog lamp covers for 80's to early 90's model Mark VII LSC's.

Just an idea:

I am about draw this in Adobe Illustrator in a vector format. I am going to be doing a little bit at a time and the file should be done in a week or so.

Gimme a break on this PLEASE I have 9 other MAJOR projects going on right now.

Plus I am not going to break my ass on this and only sell a few sets too. Like EVERYTHING else we have made, EVERYBODY wanted EVERYTHING and then when its made a FEW sell, so Im not really that hyped about it anyway. When this does go down they will be based on a MINIMUM quanity on a PRE PAID PRE ORDER BASIS. I am tired of losing my shirt on projects.

I'm a little confused now. There seems to be a demand for these, I wouldn't base the inital popularity or number of units expected to be sold soley off of the introductory thread, nor from a business stand point would I base the popularity or projections on a different past product offering.

It's obvious theres a demand by members for these here. I believe these would be a good addition to you're growing LMS inventory of neat add on's. I wouldn't react to curious or eager prospective customers as an annoyance but would simply handle curiousity for these items as a group of people that are eager to advertise and showcase a product made by your company. If that simply isn't a lucrative way for advertising than what is? LOL

I don't want to sound harsh but supply and demand isn't really our priority in this case? Personally, I'd be interested in 4-5 sets for myself and for a few other enthusiasts of LVC.

If the project is on hold for an extended period keep us updated. I was a bit thrown by the clock offering, when this item seemed to be in the works months ago.

Heres the latest as of April 3rd.

This is a copy of the email my metal Guy sent me in regards to the CobraStar logo.

Gene,
The file looks like it will work if the height is about 3". If you can go
larger, then that would be better, but definately not smaller.

As I said before, I will have to do test cuts to see if it is feasible to do
parts this detailed and small on the plasma. If it works, then it's a go. If
not, then we'll have to talk about another solution. I wouldn't promise or
sell anything to anyone without 1st seeing a sample. We don't even know if
this will work until we do test cuts.

I will be out of town until the weekend. I am leaving in about an hour. We
can link up when I get back.

Thanks!

Not good news.


Gene,
I did a test cut on this a few days ago. The parts are just too small to do
with the plasma and have it look good. My machine is really setup for
cutting larger items and I thought that I could get a good cut on these
things.

The test cut was able to cut the profile out and that's about it. The center
section doesn't come out, which pretty much makes it dead in the water. That is using the FineCut consumables I talked about earlier on.

Not sure about casting. I'll be talking to my laser guy either the end of
this week or beginning of next and see if he can laser AL that thick.

Sorry, but it looks like it is a no-go from me. You might want to find a guy with a laser to make them or have them cast in plastic. Wish I could be of more
help on this.

Thanks!
