Ford Script/Logo

My May 28 has the script bar. As a side note the headlights do not have the script, I always thought that was interesting.

Do you mean the buckets don't have script?
Or, do you mean the lens doesn't have script?

It's been my understanding none of the buckets with fluted lens had script, but the lens does.
 
I am on my first cup of coffee, not quite awake. I vaguely remember something about the scripts having to be removed from many of the parts so that they could be exported. Some countries required that a certain % of the parts had to originate in the country receiving the car. Something about a lawsuit and the scripts were taken off of the parts Even if I,m wrong, hope it joggs someone,s memory who may be on their second cup!
 
The buckets no script and the lens only had script on very early cars my May 28 no script on lens or bucket, but on the headlight bar and various other interesting places on the chassis.
 
Our 6-21-28 has script on lenses but I don't see anything on the buckets car is assembled in Chicago

The VE lenses had them at the top,..then it changed to the bottom for the
remainder of the years..

The fluted lens buckets didn't have the script,..when the "Twolite" came about
it had the script.....in early 29.


My script headlamp bar for my mid-28 has the script facing backwards,..
kinda cool..
 
d.j. our 6-21-28 has ford script on the bottom of the fluted lenses my earlier picture turned out sideways. our headlight bar has the script facing backwards also
 
Nice photos! Thanks! I spent some time today searching for the parts on my car with script logos and part numbers. I discovered my front bumper brackets have a C stamped on them. But what really gained my attention was the front axle and brake rods that apparently were given a "protective" coating of POR15 or equivalent covering up all the stampings!! I will start disassembly and re-restore next month.
 
Agree with Tom and Steve - Henry was adamant concerning cost of vendor parts and had script eliminated from parts, tools etc. jiml...
