danny_discus Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Fortunately I was able to acquire an original SS air cleaner recently from Jared (thanks!) and in the process of restoring it I was able to remove the original 'CN' decal off of it fairly easy. After some research I was not able to locate this decal anywhere so I decided to try and duplicate it. I scanned the image into the computer and, pixel by pixel, cleaned up the image to my satisfaction I then acquired some waterproof labels and printed them out via a laser color printer. From here using a straight edge and a razor blade I cut them out and they are shown below. As you can see there are some light spots due to the laser printer but oh well. I also included a shot of the build sheet showing the 'CN' in the Air Cleaner box which I believe is specific to the LS5 in the 70 SS Monte Carlos. I am not sure about the 71 SS or 72 Montes. Hopefully this helps some understand what those two characters mean when looking at those decals as I had to dig around to figure that out myself. 1 Quote
1970mcss Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Nice work, I needed the same label and just ordered them from a vender that attends Carlisle. Quote
Rob Peters Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 Very nice Dan, Very Nice Indeed. Better watch out or you will be having to produce them for not only everyone's SS but everyone's Monte. BTW, I have a 350 2BRL, I will have to check my number 55 box on my build sheet....JK rob Quote
willie Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Dan, nice job they look great!!! I like Paul had just ordered some from the guy at Carlisle. The 2 letters for the 71SS are "AU" at least for mine. Quote
danny_discus Posted September 20, 2019 Author Posted September 20, 2019 Thanks everyone and as you can see I will have some extras. Quote
mmccammon Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Where does this label attach? mine is missing. photo? thanks mike Quote
71MonteCarloMD Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 Nice job, I am looking for one for my SB 350, is there a code specific for my Monte? Quote
danny_discus Posted September 21, 2019 Author Posted September 21, 2019 Here is a pic before I took it off Quote
mmccammon Posted September 22, 2019 Posted September 22, 2019 How much to buy a label from you? Quote
danny_discus Posted September 25, 2019 Author Posted September 25, 2019 Michael I sent you a PM Quote
1970mcss Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 My vendors label wasn't correct, do you have another to sell? Send me a message and let me know, thanks Paul Quote
danny_discus Posted November 10, 2019 Author Posted November 10, 2019 Update, was able to get the air cleaner installed last night with an updated label along with a new pcv and hose. 2 Quote
willie Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Looks good Dan!!! I wasn't so lucky, Jack couldn't get what i needed so i had to have them made. Ohh Boy!!! Quote
MCfan Posted November 10, 2019 Posted November 10, 2019 Looks great, Dan! Glad to see my old girl getting such TLC! You did an amazing job on that label! Unbelievable how much time it can take to replicate something with both text and multiple graphics and colors on it. Hope you can leverage you skills and experience in making other labels for yourself and other members. Well done! Quote
1970mcss Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Dan was nice enough to send me an extra label he had made. I got a chance to get in put on the car tonight. It really puts the finishing touch to my engine bay redo. Dan I hope to repay you some day. Maybe at a meet. Thanks again, Paul Quote
Jared Richey Posted November 14, 2019 Posted November 14, 2019 Very nice. Of course once I sell the best ls5 air cleaner I ever had I end up getting another SS haha Go ahead and make a few more decals. How much are they to make? Quote
