'65 Riviera fender scripts

[Bluzharp]

Anyone have, or can refer me to a source for the "Riviera" script on the front fenders of a '65? The chrome is peeling off one of mine.

Thanks!

Art,

You might keep an eye out for them on ebay....search for "riviera emblems"... find the ones that match yours. I see them listed every now and then at a fairly reasonable price.

Art,

Ship is on the right track. Here's a link to some new ones on eBay from Gene. Gene's been around a long time and he's a good guy to deal with.

Those are not 100% correct because on 65's and other years as well the top of the "R" does not connect. See pic below (not my car)

Gene probably doesn't have everything he has on ebay; contact him and tell him what you need.

Thanks All! I'll contact Gene and see what he's got. I'd prefer to go original since other than mechanical maintenance stuff, the only things non-original are carpet, sound system, and paint.

Thanks Again

i got my replacement fender scripts also via ebay but not from one of the above mentioned ROA core members ... main advantage of the connection inside the "R" is that it makes the script less fragile. unfortunately the material itself was not so "stiff" so the script was more flexible than the old original ones. i assume original scripts with the separated "R" in prestine mint condition are hard to find.
