engine data plate (found some)

Unread post by elsasser7122 » July 14th, 2015, 11:08 am

I am looking for a blank engine date plate for the M151 so I can put my info into it. Anybody has one or knows where to get one, any help would be appreciated.

Do a Google search, someone out there was making replica data plates on a laser machine. They were making them for all kinds of stuff, not just 151's but the quality was really nice. You may have to supply one for them to copy from but they are only copying the print, not the stamped data.

yes I know Rick, I am the one that had the ford stylized dash data plates made, with the ford motor company in the ford stylized script, have some of these for sale if anybody needs them. Probably will have to go the same route with the engine plate. The initial art work and the set up cost is what becomes expensive, might have to have some made by the same company then I will have a bunch extra made for sale.
