Re: Emblem

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good used 1965 Coronet trunk emblems are not usually cheap. NOS even more.
See ebay Item number: 350142701368 for example.

One tactic is to contact owners of 1964 880s and see if they could take a close up photo of the one on their car in the high definition quality needed by a graphics shop to email you. Then have the graphics place make the reproduction image and print it on magnetic material, the kind used to make refrigerator magnets. You could then just stick that on your car.  Save the file and if the graphic on the deck lid ever gets lost you can easily make another.

Or you could scan in any appropriate graphic from a 1964 Dodge 880 sales brochure and use it. Hardly anyone will know what a 880 trunk emblem is supposed to look like anyway. :)    
For example, the 50 years of dependability graphic on:

Only difference is the coronet isn't a trunk lock. I figured if I could find one used, I could try and pop out the insert off the coronet one and glue it etc, in the trunk lock I got. So, if anyone has/knows where I can get one relatively cheap to try this let me know. Being that I've never seen the coronet I don't know how big they are compared to what I have. Shot in the dark here maybe someone can help me. Hate to spend a lot of money on something idk will work!
