Default Body tag
Does anyone out there reproduce body tags and stamp then with the correct font stamps? My 31 cabriolet has a repro tag and etched body number. I would like a correct tag.

Try A.G Backeast.

Depending on font complexity and how particular you are, he may be able to help you. Generally he's pretty good.
