PRIVATE COACH EMBLEM

If anyone is looking for a Private Coach Emblem, the link below is a good deal from a reputable seller. It is not uncommon for the price to be over $50. http://www.ebay.com/itm/PRIVATE-COAC...7a26d4&vxp=mtr

Why not resurrect an 11 yo thread, LOL. I'm waiting on overnight shipments that should have arrived by noon (3 hours ago). I too was looking and fount lots of "sticker" style "Private Coach" options from the myriad of on-line branding shops but wanted something more along the lines of the cast aluminum "Royale Coach" plaque on the bus. The ones IBP sells are nice, bot too modern for the `97 vintage, font is too new, etc.. Found the really nice ones milled out of aluminum from the guy in Michigan. Both look great on the XL2 and newer IMO. Found these old cast aluminum ones on eBay for $80, they're old, corroded, font is art-deco so older that the `97 Royale plaque but IMO it looks good and works. I'm presently refinishing them with the black background and rough sanded face (like the photo and the Royale plaque) but clear coat the whole thing before mounting (unlike the Royale plaque which will probably get the same treatment). I'm going to cut and glue in stainless steel screw heads but 3M double-stick them to the coach. I'll post photo once complete. I've seen another set come and go that was polished that looked nice too. A bit flashy and probably more for indoor but could go either way based on personal taste. I think they might be off a train car or the like - they are pretty big :20" x 3".

Finally got them refinished and installed. Still have to glue on the stainless screw heads. Bus is filthy from traveling.

I can see why you are happy with these.
