Source for Carrera font...

I want to make some stickers for my helmet and other things, and would like to use the Carrera font. You know the same font they use to spell Carrera on the side of a 73 RS and others. I know this has been discussed here before, but I couldn't find it in the archives.

Good luck.

The Porsche font is pretty easy to find...there are both good and bad repoductions of this font. Been searching for years and have yet to find a decent repo of the Carrera script font.

a friend of mine owns a sign shop. He has a cool plotter that can cut vinyl graphics. If it can be scanned in, you can make a graphic.
Check with a local sign shop in your area...im sure they can help you out.

Sorry, don't have an answer for you, but your idea of Carrera stickers, etc sounds good. If/When you get those made up, interested in selling some?

Thanks

FWIW, there are at least two types of "Carrera" fonts.
I will be very surprised if you find any "true-type" examples of any "Carrera" type fonts.
