The hood is easy. Dead center of the sides of the bulge.

The others I can measure. rear or front quarter.

The Regal on the rear quarter should line up with the center of the taillights.

THX Alan, your car looks very nice. I would really appreciate the measurements. I need rear quarter and deck lid. If you did the front fender, I'm sure others would appreciate it also for future reference. I could only find GN placement. I didn't know the tip on the hood neither, thx again.
 
Mike, Have you posted any pics of this new car you have yet? After seeing your GN and Impala SS, I'm sure its going to be impressive.

I asked about this in the restoration section. SOme people posted some pics there too...
 
Thanks, Jeremy. But the info you sent is for an 87 Turbo T not 86 T Type, I need info for an 86.

Theoretically the only thing that changes is the location of the Front Fender badges.

They are located 5 1/2 inches from the top of the T to the body line on the front fender. The T is 1 and 7/8 inches from the edge of the fender.

The intercooled emblem is 1/8" below the main and it sits flush with the E in type.

Yes, I think I can work with the measurements Jeremy sent me. :)
Thanks, guys.

No, I haven't J. Guess I just been trying to get it together first, it will be decent. Don't expect to much to soon, it's going to be my daily driver. ;)
 
Thats cool Mike I tried my best to put my emblems in the proper spot and turned out well. It took a little extra time but it makes me feel better when I see cars with them wrong. I have been wanting a silver stock T-Type for a daily for a while now. Keep us posted.
 
I am bringing this back for debate, did 86 T Types have an "intercooled" badge under the T Type badge or not, I get mixed thoughts from people.....

Thanks!
