51 Frazer Body & Trunk Scripts to be Reproduced

John Kepich in the club has agreed to have a few scripts made in polished stainless steel for the 51 Frazers.  If you've seen his 52-55 "Kaiser" and "Manhattan" script, they are beautiful.  They look just like the chrome plated ones but will never rust or pit.

Randy Owens has sent me the 2 trunk scripts.  I need the read door "Manhattan" script for the project.  Condition is not important.  It's the outside shape that is needed, so used/pitted, is "OK."  We will return your sample.  Cost will be finalized once I get the samles in John's hands, but likely due to the large size, they will run about $100 each.

Let me know if you can help.

Mike

Thanks, Mike

Mike - would he be interested in "Aero Eagle" script? About how much does it cost per script?

OK, thanks Randy...got it.  That makes it better and easier...probably John will have better success selling as well.

Rick, John Kepich gets $80 for the 52-55 Kaiser & Manhattan script, so I'd expect these will be more but I don't set the price, do any of the work, nor receive any of the sales $$.  There's a lot of work in the polishing thats where the main cost is.

I can ask him if he'll do 1 Aero Eagle script and see what he says.  Do you have a sample to go by?  Let me know if you're interested and I'll ask.

All, spoke with John Kepich and the scripts will be $80 each.  He will do a few "Aero Eagle"script but I need a sample. 

Doc, send me your e-mail address to mbfleming@aol.com.  I have some information I need to send you on the Frazer Manhattan script.

Got your email. Mike and responded with some information about the unique Frazer 4-door sedan trunk script.  Mine is broken off and a big gap exists between the F and the razer.
