Data plate stamping
My truck was missing several plates, but got new blanks from Dirk. Does anyone stamp this the original way?

Data plate stamping.
I brought up this question a couple of years ago as I have blank data plates that need the information stamped on them for my Ford cab 13 60 cwt ambulance and I never heard back from anybody.One source of stamping upwards is the machine that people have at the military conventions for stamping dog tags but the letters would be too small to look correct.I too would be interested in finding a way of doing the stampings.
Regards,Derk.

Data plate stamping
Quote:
I had a set of new Nomenclature plates done and stamped by a guy in Holland. He does stamping and has 5 types of fonts that can be used. You can check him out on: www.dataplates4u.com I found him to be very good and he forwarded my new set of stamped plates for my 1942 MB Willys Jeep to Australia in no time at all. He also does research on the serial numbers as well. Cheers Tony

Hi Svenn,
Tony is right in advising you to contact Robert at http://www.dataplates4u.com/ I had a blank New Old Stock M29C Weasel Ord plate stamped by Robert and might I say I am impressed with his work. I also needed a complete weasel hull tag made from scratch. I will let the attached photo do the talking. Robert is your man. Cheers John W.

Dataplate stamping
I have been trying to get data plates made for the carriers .I have tride alot of places in the USA but the problem is that if it is like a motor vehicle plate there is law in USA and Canada against having the tools for this and making a plate . David at DKlone@aol.com does the etching plates in the USA .I tride a addressograft machine but the numbers and letters are too small .maybe I can get them done in holland .Too make the carrier plate its called reverce stamping and you need letters male and female that are backwards for both sides of the plate

Carrier Data plates
I have been along time it seams trying to get the data plates made for a carrier .I have contacted many plate makers but when they finally understand what I needed they freek out or never undertstand ,The law is that it is illeagal to make a car vin serial number or have the tools to do it , but these plates we need are not a vin plate .I did not find one that could do the reverse stamping for us . One guy did Vin plates for autos but only on a car that there was enough information that would satisfy the goverment that it was a repoduction of the original numbers . I tried a addesograft but the numbers were too small .Now I can get a fellow to make a plate by etching .This would have raised numbers and be flat on the back . Would anyone want this kind of plate ?

What about finding a place that was able to do just the publication plate? This was mounted on the front armour just below and to the right of the gun slot. It would be standard for the carriers and it has no VIN/serial info on it.

The automobile was patented by a man named Selden in the late 19th century. Most car makers paid him a royalty & were supplied a plate with raised lettering & a stamped number indicating the fee had been paid. (Henry Ford fought him until the patent was weeks from expiring.)
These plates have been reproduced by casting new ones from an original pattern. The back is, as you would expect, smooth but the front is very correct. The repros have no stamped numbers so you can stamp them to match the car if you know the number. I have used both originals & repros & once installed you can not tell the difference. The carrier plates could be cast in aluminum. You might have to live with an incorrect ser. no. or leave the number blank & stamp the correct number if it is important in your area. The picture with no background is an original reverse stamped plate, the other is a new casting. Last edited by Jack Innes; 12-12-12 at 05:26.

data plate
What I found was that it is hard to find someone with the male and female stamps .If I could get the stamps I would make them my self ..Somone is making the" FORD" plate behind the driver .I know some that got them .
The two plates I was trying to get are 104x38 mm ,the letters or numbers are 6mm and 4 mm high The plate is .015 or 1/2 mm thick made of zinc .The stamps are backward as it is stamped from the back so as to get razed letters .This requires two stamps .A male and a female to make one letter .The stamps that you can buy are for front stamping .Could a CNC milling machine make a set ? If anone wants to see if they can find these stamps give it a try .
