Not my extended cab.  I like the straight shot, be better if it was a 85 grill.  Zieg85 over the top block letter curved and Hebron, IN under straight across in smaller letters.  How hard would it be to take a picture and turn it into part of a stencil?  I have a straight on shot in my desktop I would like.  It is a straight shot of my 85C20 that I like a lot.
If you want it of your C20, because of a certain reason let me know, and I can try stenciling it depending on quality of photo and lighting. But here is it with a 80s grill. Let me know if there is something else you want. Once we get it way you like I will send you copy of the one with out my logo thru it.

Stencil with 80s grill:



That is the look, Zieg85 Bigger over the truck in bolder letters Z at the right fender 5 at the left.  Hebron, IN is fine.  GM Squarebodies between the bumper and town maybe?

I believe this is what you wanted, when you said fender to fender:

Here is one with stencil font:



Here is one with bold block letters:

I like the stencil font best, nice job.  I'll let you know what size I am thinking.  Probably letters in white, it is going on a red truck...

Here is what it would look like on the door of a red c20: (just got rid of side molding on door, because didn't think you had any)

I tried emailing but it failed.  Letters like the attached for Zieg85 and make the picture of the truck 25% smaller

Zieg - Okay I will work on it tomorrow, it helps to have something to base off of what your looking for, because I have 10,000+ font/type faces on my computer.

Bake - Thanks, it is a passion of mine (graphic/web design and video editing). I had a lot of different angles and stuff store up when I was designing my custom squarebody embroidered work shirt I made, so was not too hard to adapt it to what Zieg wanted.

Okay here is the logo, with new block text and shrunk the truck 25%:



Here the truck where I think you like the logo:



And here was me "playing" and making it more "vintage" looking, if it is going on a shop truck, so it is not so pretty  ;) :

Shrink the zieg85 and can the block letters be shadowed in black like the example I posted?
