Title: NEW 65GS Division Window Logo
Post by: dsags on October 22, 2015, 01:25:51 PM
Loren and I have been working on a 65GS window cling. Usually they are static clings but we dare to be different. LOL

We have window 'sticky's' that are removable and reusable. The design is a 4" circle that is made to be placed on the inside of a car window. The size allows them to be placed on any window including the vent window.

Both styles are available but we would like to know which one is preferred - if any. PLUS, you don't have to be a member of the BCA to get one (or two or twenty).

No pricing yet but they will not be pricey.

Any interest ?

Dan

I like the top design better. Looks good.

I agree.  I prefer the top one.

I like the one with the Verde green background  :laughing7:

I also like the top one .   Those will look cool next to my Thrush mufflers stickers or my Northstar Dragways stickers .

Good Job.

Did you guys try a design with a smaller 'Division'. It seems a bit, well, dominating.

Thanks for the feedback Walt. Do you like this one better ? Everything in white would be clear on the sticky.

I think they are all great (although clear might be less visible),  but you might consider adding the ".com" so that people who pass by our cars when they are unattended at shows and other locations will be directed to the website if they have an interest in becoming involved.

I tried going even further with the size adjustment, but now there's too much red! What do you thick about making the 'BUICK CLUB OF AMERICA' black?
Also included pics of the air cleaner decals to possibly include some of those design ideas.....
Make the outer ring red with black lettering? Include that 'sawblade' detail somewhere?
I have lots of ideas, but many, many are not good ones!

The original idea was to have a BCA 65GS Division logo. Maybe we need a second logo for the website.

Walt, we wanted to keep the '65GS' consistent with the masthead logo on this site. Know its not exactly the same but .....

Might have to play around with letter colors and that sawblade thing. Do like to have the same color lettering on both the top and bottom though.

Walt, tried working with your ideas but my software and technical skills aren't up to the challenge. Plus, the design got really busy.

Black letters didn't look good either as there then wasn't enough red. Oh well .... Try this.

Wait a minute....Version #2 is the same as version #3.....???
Okay, I get it... you '65 guys are ganging up on me! :icon_biggrin:.....
That decal probably wouldn't look right on my '66's anyway.... I would get sooo much grief by uninformed car show spectators calling my '66 a '65! (which is far better than it being called a Chevelle!)

You '66 guys have poor eyesight.  :icon_biggrin: The red letters have black outlines and the word 'Division' is in a smaller font. Sheesh, I make these really big changes and you don't notice. LOL  :laughing7:

That's a really, really, thin outline. I must need a bigger computer monitor too! :icon_biggrin:

I like Rob's idea of having some made with ".com"
Great work

I like the first one as the blue one would clash with certain other colors. Silver goes with anything

I think BuickGS65 may have a good idea with the smaller .com and centered adjustment for the .com version.

A lot of good input and a job well done.

Thanks

I definitely like the last one.  I'd definitely be in for  ten small stickers. Something to stick in the wing window or back glass. Even though I have 66 and my dad would be super happy to have them in his 65's

Looking great,
If the letters and lines could be printed on clear plastic would be great (so the sticker "float" if put on a window).

Shots of the 65GS.com logo sticky on the vent window of my air conditioned (tinted windows) 65. An easy fit at 4". This one has adhesive across the whole surface which makes it look like it has a silver background. It is removable and can be re-applied. These come 8 to a sheet and you need to cut out your own logo.

Available the same way is the 65GS DIVISION logo sticky. Same 4" with adhesive across entire surface. Either of these is available for $5.00 per sheet of 8 plus shipping (postage and an 8x11 envelope).

In process of getting a static cling (clear vinyl) example for comparison. Will probably be next week at the earliest before I have these. The pricing on those would probably be $2 EACH plus shipping. They would be die cut in 4" circles.

Are you open for business on these yet?

I am interested in a sheet of each but will wait until the static version is also available to consolidate shipping.

Milton,

There are eight to a sheet. Do you want one sheet of the 65GS.com and one sheet of the 65GS DIVISION ? The static clings are at my house now but I'm not. Will post a picture next week of the 65GS.com static cling.

Dan
Title: Re: NEW 65GS Division Window Logo

Yes I would like a full 8 count sheet of the .com and a 8 count sheet of the division version unless that wipes out your supply and doesn't allow others to get theirs in a timely fashion. If inventory is an issue I would like 2 of each to cover both sides of my car.

I would prefer to wait on shipping so I could consolidate the order for a better rate to include 2 individuals on the static version.

Thanks as always!

Milton
