Is there a source for Model W decals?

If we can get the details of what they look like, I can probably cut them out of vinyl for you. I need some good, clear graphics to start with.

The "CLETRAC"  and "Cleveland Tractor Co." on the hood and lower tin are too faded to use as a pattern on mine.  I  have seen pictures of restored W's with restored lettering -- I  assumed  those folks had  found decals somewhere .  Maybe they just took the tin to a real good sign painter?
(Thanks for your offer!):)

Eventually I want to get set up to cut the decals for all the models, but for now I can only do the word "Cletrac" and the oval logo such as I used on the license plates.

I have to find the some good graphics - such as in manuals - and the time to set things up.

Take care,
