Ford decal for side of speedster gas tank.

Post by Meestro » Mon Aug 18, 2025 1:52 pm

I recently finished the build of a 1926 Model T Speedster with an oval gas tank. I would like to add the appropriate Ford decal for the period on the sides of the gas tank but cannot seem to find a place to purchase them, even though I have seen many gas tanks with the decal/vinyl on the side. Any idea where to purchase them decals?

Any local vinyl graphics shop or sign shop should be able to print up one for a reasonable price if you can’t find what you are looking for.

If you are using a standard T oval tank, most I have seen have a depressed X pattern in the ends. A vinyl stick-on may not be the answer. A vehicle wrap type application should do the trick. Maybe neither will appreciate fuel being spilled over them.
