OLDSMOBILE chrome letters for trunk
I bought my 1972 Cutlass Supreme last year from a gentlemen that put a new trunk on the car but it doesn't have the OLDSMOBILE letters across the back. This is something that stands out to me on alot of the others that I see and I def. want it on mine! Anyone know where I can find those chrome letters to put on my trunk? I've searched but maybe I'm searching the wrong places?

Big Trav,
When I installed mine 10 years back it was not an easy thing as I thought it would be. Aftermarket crap never is agreeable. If you have to drill slightly bigger holes (as I did with some) just do not make the hole too big. Better to go slow and work your way up little by little. I thought they would just pop right in...no such luck.

I'll def make sure I don't do that...as far as I know the trunk doesn't even have the holes right now?? Atleast on the outside anyway...hopefully he just put body filler over them...I'll have to check the inside of it when I get home...

I may have a nice original set of letters from a desert car - not perfect, but very nice used. I'll have to dig thru my bins in the garage...
