Default Club Tag Topper

I do not do this often, but I want to give praise to Dennis of O'Brien Truckers for producing a large quantity of a complex tag topper for my Model "A" club.

Looks great. I have a collection of these scattered around here and there on the walls. There always cool to look at and to have on the cars as well.

We had him make one for our club too. We sent him an original one that was sold in San Antoinio in the 30's and he copied it for us. We have sold quite a few, some even to non-members. He is easy to deal with and reliable.

That is great Bob. Is there a certain amount of plaques before they can make them for you?

There is a price list on the website. Look under the drop down menu for Custom products

Very nice topper, but how is it used on a Model A? It seems the tail light would be in the way.

Usually mount on headlight bar over front plate. I have an original that says “Presque Park “on front of mine.

Didn't think of that - duh!

Course it would be more visible to cars behind than to oncoming ones. Might be possible to turn rear license bracket upside-down so tag and topper would be above tail light (like 32 Ford) - probably need a vertical support behind tag. But then there's the problem of the license light.

You guys send him a sketch, or he requires "digital camera ready art"?
