OK, so I am having a radiator shell fixed up and need to rebuild the emblem for it (1930). where do I get them rebuilt or do I have to buy a new one?

Thanks,

Mike
 
Although I cringe most of the time at "replace, don't restore" I sincerely doubt that you could get a custom restoration for anywhere near the cost of a replacement.
 
Check around your local adult education sometimes they have jewelry making and enameling classes. The problem is that there are so many cheap repros that are decent quality you'd be throwing money away restoring an original. Even if the chrome is good.
 
Mike, why not check with Karla maxwell. Probably result in an excellent addition to your restoration. Would stop any future justifications you would be making as to why you used a repo. I submit the example of a OEM hydraulic shock versus a tubular shock. Go cheap, and regret it.
