Does anyone know where I might find a Sanger emblem like in the "72Super Lite" photos. The emblem on the right side of the dash. I tried Sanger a couple of years ago...thinking they might have some tucked away somewhere-no luck. I'll bet someone has one.

I'm reasonable...would it be a replica of the original or something different? I'm wanting one that looks original. Do you have an original to work from? What are you talking for price? Thanks.

This would be a very easy thing to reproduce, find a local pattern and mold shop to make an epoxy pattern off it, then they would duplicate off of the pattern to make a plastic mold or aluminum die cast cavity.

Well.... I just happen to have a Sanger AND Rayson Emblem. Haven't seenthe Sanger in a long time though. Have to find it. Don't want to part with them but might be willing to get involved in a repop of them.

Check with Sanger directly or a dealer.
I believe they still use the same emblem on the dash of their new boats.

Here's a shot of a Sanger dash plaque I have from the 60's, showing Sanger, California instead of Fresno. If anyone is going to go to expense of casting new ones, I'd gladly loan this one to the cause. The picture doesn't do it justice, this things in perfect shape.

It's different. I did check with Sanger...they don't have any old ones, and I can't bring myself to use the new style one.

I was going to reproduce a bunch of these for the guys on the boards awhile ago.. Until I was notified about a potential lawsuit from Sanger if I did it.. I talked to the folks at sanger about it, and they wanted me to make them, sell them to them so they could mark them up and sell them out of there place.
I lost interest about that point..
To make these would be incredibly simple though.. Get ahold of an original. Cast an RTV Mold off of it, pour in wax, investment cast in aluminum. Total part cost would be about 30 bucks a peace.
I'm having some vents done for a guy on the boards right now, but I'm not going to say who, or what mfg they were originally made from becuase I'm not interested in getting sued..

Not to be a buzzkill, but investment cast in aluminum for 30? For the same price they could be made out of billet, with much better material characteristics for strength, durabilty, and finish properties.
Just my .02

Brian! Would you consider making me some Lavey-Craft emblems out of billet. Al never made them as far as I know for the race hulls and I have never seen them on any Laveys of the period. I would be very interested in adding a non original one to the dash so I wouldnt have to paint it on. People always ask since its so different and to others 'plain ugly'! The current manufacture may have some but it wouldnt represent the old Al boats well in my opinion. thanks;)

Dave, if you do it for cost and don't make any profit, is that really something they can sue you for? Also, if you end up doing that, I would like to involved in the process. I have always been interested in what you do and would like to follow the procedures. I'll even bring the cold ones....
