I need a pair of V-8 front fender emblems for my 1954 Ford Convertible, they must be original and in excellent condition. Thanks Don 605-261-4655.

Hi Don,


Looks like your new to Ford Barn. Welcome ! Lots of knowledge here. There is also a for sale and wanted section on the Barn (Swap Meet). Putting your question there also will help speed up the process.

Dennis Carpenter has them. Part # BM-16237-PR. If you want original NOS ones, look on ebay. You never know what's out there, but it seems you are looking for a needle in a haystack.

you say they are for your convertible just so you know there is no special emblem for a convertible if that was your thought.as Paul said DC as well as most aftermarket Ford parts places carry them very common item.it has been years since I bought any but all I bought had the part # cast in so unless they come with some kind of certificate any you find will be reproductions.

You can always tell a '54 from a '52 or '53 by looking at the V8 emblem on the front fenders. '54 was the first year for the Y-block V8 emblem, OEM part #BM-16237-A. That same emblem was also used for '55 & '56 Fords with Y-block engines.
Obsolete & Classic auto parts sells it for $13.95 each.

I'm not sure if they are the same but my 55 Thunderbird has V8 emblems on the fenders. If they are the same you may have some luck finding N.O.S. at one of the Thunderbird suppliers (if N.O.S. is a requiremen)

The V8 fender emblems in '54 and '55, full sized car & T-Bird look the same to me.
