Location: Montreal, Canada		I'm having my Air Cleaner decal reproduced as mine is torn and only about 40% is there. Here's what's left of it:





I only have to find out what was written at the very bottom of the Canadian Decal. I'm suspecting "CHRYSLER CORPORATION OF CANADA, LIMITED", which was the usual wording on other canadian parts, but if someone with a better decal could verify this for me in their CANADIAN FL car, I'd be happy! The rest of the text and the part numebr will be all correct for most CHRYCO FL cars.

Also, correct measurements in centimeters could be helpful too.



By the way, let me know if you need some of these for your restoration. Send me a PM, as I could have a small quantity produced.

Thanks!

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada		David, its been so many years since I've seen an actual Canadian decal I don't remember much but I assume it would say CHRYCO on it somewhere, in place of MoPar On my former CDN 1960 Polara I replaced the decals with repro US types from Gary Goers. My ex-300 and my current Saratoga are both US built cars.

Thanks, but I got all the text correct except for the very last line, as the bottom part of my decal is torn off. I just found a photo online, and I now think it should read: "CHRYSLER CORP. CANADA, LTD". That's what I will make them write, but if someone could verify this, it would be better.

Jeff (58dodgeregent), could you verify this in one of your 23 Chryco cars please??


I'll approve the first draft later today or early next week.



What's left of my decal:

Thanks a lot Jeff!! It's much appreciated! I didn't approve the first draft yet, so I have another couple of days to research this.


By the way, from the ones I've seen, I think the decals were all the same through 1957-1960 for Canada, except maybe for the part number. So if you have an Air Cleaner decal left in either a '57, a '58 or a '60 Chryco car, the last line should be the same.

Location: Montreal, Canada		Those of you with eagle eyes can contribute too. Here are the best three pics of this decal I found online. Can you read the last line on them?
