    Nice.
    What is the tag above the leftmost engine bay decal - Is that an AMAG tag?

    Marelli S121B restoration (by Kurt at Partsklassic) for my 2.5L street motor. Upgraded from points to Pertronix, but still running an OE cap and rotor.

    Mike,

    would you mind sharing who did the enamel, please.

    I've got a couple of chipped early orange-bar badges that I'd like to get re-enamelled.
