color of hood emblem

[farmtruckman]

What color, if any is the "Ford F100" emblem mounted on the side of the hood? I assume the "Ford" letters are black, but I can't find any pictures of the rest of the part that is "F190". Is the field behind the "F100" any color at all? or just chrome?

I thougth I remember seeing once that the field between the raised chrome edges was orange but I can't remember.

Thanks in advance.

If you're looking for 67, I like to refer to it as kind of a "washed out" tomato red. Steve's pic is good, but here are a couple shots of some NOS (or dang near) '67 emblems I have "in waiting" that might help. I'm actually guessing that these emblems once graced a truck that didn't live very long, but I don't know their exact "provenance".

those are yours Supermike? those are NICE!!! wow now i have to get new hood emblems. sheesh ill look at mine and they will look like garbage now

LOL! Yep... those are mine. The backs are as clean and pretty as the fronts, too. I paid a pretty penny for them, though. They're currently wrapped in soft cloth and packed away in a box on a shelf, awaiting that unknown day in the future when the old girl gets new paint, etc.

I've also got a NOS set of "FORD" letters... not repops, but originals. I have a couple of decent Camper Special emblems I've obtained, too, and now just need to get new "Custom Cab" emblems to take care of all of that.
