Upon closer examination of the trunk Frazer script it appears that I have a section of the "r" missing as well; the "r" is broken in half.  The outer two pins are accessible from inside the trunk but the middle two are not which means the middle two studs will have to be short as original or through holes will need to be drilled through the trunk.  Having said this, I have removed the script from the trunk and in the process of emailing John Kepich that I will be sending it as sample. I have the stud spacings marked and believe the first broken "r" after the "F" in Frazer will be the same shape as the last "r" in Frazer except it will need  a long horizontal section to connect. Once unpacked and looked at, I believe this script will work just fine. Gonna give it a try. Press on. Forward ho!

My reproduced Manhattan scripts arrived today and they look great.  I have not received word yet on the Frazer sedan trunk script or where John may be on that.

Glad to hear they came out great Doc!   ;)  John does nice work.  I hope the club members take advantage of their availability.  That will encourage him to continue to reproduce hard/impossible to find script.  51 Frazer script...how rare is that stuff to find?  I've never found any in 20 years!   :o

There was an article in some recent publication about Kepich but I cannot recall where I read it. Something about the business changing, building lease, just cannot recall. Might have been an orphan car club publication or something like HMN, OCW, Auto Restorer, et. al. But it was within the last few weeks.
I've googled and found nothing.
