379 logos for peterbuilts

[Supermario]

Has anyone ever produced a 379 hood badge for the 1/14th scale trucks? I work for a CAT dealer and there was a beautiful 379 Pete in the truck shop today. The guys in the shop have seen my rig and asked if I had a 379 logo for it? That's what got me wondering ??
Anyone out there up for it?

Mario

If the truck is there tommorow I will take a pic and show what I mean.

did you look through PMD's site ? Ric is the only 1 I know of but then I never looked around as I only have 1 prettybuilt being built

[Claus]

I don't know about that but Unibilt emblems would be nice.

Yes, I agree. It could be a oval plate engraved or etched with the name unibuilt ?

here you go

Now I'm confused, I thought everybody knew about the Peterbilt emblems and Mario was looking for 379 emblems, am I missing something?

[Supermario]

No, not missing anything. I'm talking bout 379 logo, not the peterbuilt logos on PMD. I rechecked the site, no 379 logos.

You could always try and make a decal of it. Wouldn't quite be the same as a badge but would still look pretty neat. I might have to play around with that idea

If I'm not mistaken the only 379 logo is the 379X logo. I've never seen just a 379?

I thought you ment the oval only 1:1 379 logo I can find is on 4 state

Replacing the "359" in 1987, it remained in production until March 2007 with the last 1,000 379s called the "Legacy Class 379".

Hey speedy8305, this truck hauls for Commercial transport. Living in a steel town on the border the big steel haulers here are Ken Graham transport who hauls mostly plate steel on flatbeds and the company Locomotiv transport. They haul coils and their fleet is all black Pete's .
Not sure if Commercial is the company your thinking of. I will ask my longtime trucker buddy and see if he can think of another steel haulin flatbed Pete fleet around here.
