Default Fender Badges, 68 Camaro

Is there a template anywhere for the placement of the "Camaro" and "SS" emblems? I think mine are in the wrong spot and want to double check before I put the stripe on. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the Assembly Manual has fairly detailed measurements for the proper placement of the emblems.

The book can get you pretty close....I never really trusted it though...I found a few orig paint SS cars for the stripe dimensions and used ref locations off of those for the "Camaro" script..Same with the 327 numbers...Be sure the stripes are correct..most are terrible.

I was going to buy a stencil kit from Phoenix Graphix for the stripe. Does anyone have a good shot of the emblems in the right spot?

Here is a restored 68....Not a terrible stripe job by any means....just a little fatter...Notice the SS sits a bit higher in the stripe.Also the stripe leads out of the wheel opening a bit closer to the edge..427 is a tad high as well..
