Emblem Layover

I am trying to get some of those emblem layovers made.

I don't know if it would be legal to get KR logo on them, so I asked Ivan if he could do one of these. I did inquire about the KR being done on AZBG he response is below.



we have a custom printed Arizona Beige color vinyl in proc0ess, but we will have to see how close the color is after we have the custom printed, sorry for the wait, we have been busy lately,
thanks!
Ivan

It definitely wouldn't be illegal to have the KR 'brand' on the logo but, that's not to say that oodles of layover folks out there wouldn't make it.

For that case, all the guys selling the FORD overlays are illegal too... unless, of course, they have express written consent from FoMoCo.

In establishing the King Ranch Ford Truck Owners Club, I obtained written permission from both FORD and KR to use their names. Both letters from both companies specifically state that, in no way, can our club 'benefit' from the sale of anything with our club name on it.... which, naturally, is fine with us.

They are very protective of their brands...

Let me know what you discover on the AZ Beige... what you described in your post is EXACTLY what I was thinking about trying to have someone make; a BLACK overlay with a AZ BEIGE Running W in the oval. For now, I have Black FORD overlays on order that should be here this week.

Did you do the same on the tailgate?

05 150 KR,

I wish I had never found this forum - money keeps flying outta my wallet!

I'm a Texas-Ex and would love to get Bevo on my truck - where did you get them?

Hook'em Horns!

I don't have it on there yet. I just photo chopped it and sent it to Ivan who does the decals on ebay.

I have asked him if he can do this in Dark Copper. Also asked if he could do it with the KR logo.

I had some of the first Ford 'colored' decals on my F150 but of course when I sold the truck they went with it.
Now that I have the KR Expy I would love to put some over the Ford logo again, so I will certainly support any efforts you make to get them again !
Thanks.

(Back over 'The Pond' tomorrow and sadly spent today cleaning the expy to store in the garage until whenever !)

Cheers all !!

I'm telling you Lenny... just drive it up here, park it at my place, and I'll take WONDERFUL care of it. I won't even charge you to store it and you can fly out of Louisville International Airport (on a UPS plane).

There was an earlier post with an eBay auction for "Running W" overlays. Is this what you wanted?

Anyone know what the King Ranch font is or the family it is in? I see a few people have made some logos, so I wondered if anyone could clue me in.

Thanks.

The referenced "Running W" is not a member of a font family...it is a graphic or logo. Some say it's a steer's horns, while others say it's a snake...it doesn't matter.

You can do a Google search and find numerous hits for the "Runnning W" (King Ranch leathers has a nice logo you can copy)

EDIT: here's the link

Not sure but, I think he was referring to the font that 'KING RANCH' is written in...

Not just the 'W'.

You are correct, RP. I am trying to get some lettering done and would like to match the font.

Looks like simple Times New Roman in all capitals to me (with the 'K' and 'H' being in larger size).

Times New Roman is what I used... with some Photoshop filtering to get the right look.
