PINZGAUER logo font?

Post by pcolette »

Does anyone know the font that best replicates what the factory used for the front Pinzgauer emblem?

I found one called Bank Gothic that seems pretty close but maybe there's something better.

Well Paul,

Automotive Technik Ltd Pinzgauer, used Gill Sans Ultra

So, it depends if you want match the plate on the truck, or their lit. :wink:

Did anyone ever figure out a better match for the hood logo? I'd like to get some laser cut.

when I was working with a water jet company, I just sent a good quality photo of the front logo and they duplicated it perfectly. From there they resized it to make the door handle plaques I have on my trucks. You could literally place the plaques over the front logo and it was a perfect match. I would think the same could be done with laser if they were so motivated.

I'm doing some work to optimize my rig for search and rescue work and want to add a few custom touches that incorporates the Pinzgauer logo into it. I set up a Facebook page for the day to day work and will post major milestones to my thread here.
