Replacement Data plates

[Gerry]

Does anyone know of a good place to get a set of data plates. The gentleman in Poland (ebay) hasnt responded to multiple contacts over the last year so I am looking for another source. Would like them to be as close to original as possible.
Thanks,

I would try the usual vendors.

Midwest Military, Vintage Power Wagon etc.

David Kelone at mvdataplates.com has been MIA for about two years now. But seems to leave his website still up.

We use a local Company that can make any kind of plate needed. Typically a fairly quick turn around time, (depending on their work load at any given time). If we have done the plates you need prior, there is no set up fee, and is reasonably priced for really nice plates. If it is one we have not had them do, a first time set up fee does apply. Once in their computer, only plate cost applies.

So, Charles, have you done an early M37 with winch weight and dimension data plate? If so, how much for one?

Yes we have done them, do not have this particular plate in my stock currently, would have to check with the manufacturer to see what current cost would be for that one. I'll get Melissa to do that as soon as she has a chance, could be a day or two, lots going on right now.

I'm in no hurry, it will be a while before I am ready to do the glovebox door. Thanks.

The weight and Dimensional Data Plate cost will be $35. This is a laser etched piece, a far nicer plate than originals were. If you will scroll through the build photos of the BUDD M37B1 project in the client photo gallery on our website, you can see some good photos to better examine the quality of this plate.

That unfortunately isn't the plate I need. I need an early (NON B1) W&D WW. I'll find one, eventually. Or I'll take the time and etch my own.

I sent the info so you could view a similar W&D plate. The early M37 WW plate is virtually the same except for some different info. No problem to change lettering.

Charles, do the laser etched plated have the recess that you can feel like the original acid etched plates do? thx

The laser etched plates to me are smooth to the touch, at least to my calloused finger tips which are rather rough. I expect someone with smooth, non calloused finger tips might could feel it.
