Ramses makes pony cutouts, lights with LEDs and offers them for sale. I bought one a couple years ago for my basement and love it.
Flash forward to a couple weeks ago I sent him a message and said "hey....think you could make me another one....but...BIGGGGGGGER?"
Well, right after the ice storm, while I was without power for 9 hours, running two fires to keep the house warm, and cleaning up a flooded basement...the UPS driver literally WALKED this package down my driveway (because he couldn't drive down it...it was all ice).
And what do you think I found inside.....
This isn't the final location I am going to hand it but I quickly popped two nails in the wall to get it up and in a safe spot!

Lookin' real good! Ramseys should branch out and find other distinctive logos he could make, then advertise them on Ebay. One that comes to mind is the Chebbie Bowtie. I know that sounds like sacrilege, but hey, a buck is a buck.

It's OK to take money from bow tie boys...no prob there.
Awesome signs!

I have been wanting a big one like that to put on my gate. I guess I will have to place an order.

If it would work out, Ramseys should also make a Ford Oval with a slotted edge around the perimeter and the script cut out in the center.
It is true, however, that there is probably nothing else like the Mustang, that lends itself so well to his motif.

I have an open question out to him about getting one made out of stainless steel suitable for hanging outside on my barn.......

Well dammit, I guess size DOES matter.

Dodgestang - Do you mind sharing some details about the color on that fastback? I LIKE that!

The green mustang is painted in PPG 1967 Dark Moss Green with added silver mettalic flake and pearl. Just finished getting it buffed a couple weeks ago and I am in the middle of putting it back together.

I LIKE that table top idea!!!!!

Careful boys.....
I stopped showing off trademarked logos on open forums for a very compelling reason.....
Namely a politely worded cease & desist from a lawfirm representing a powerful client.
There are eyes everywhere, who are paid to look for this type of stuff.

Yep you bring up a good point. But I don't sell it as "The Ford Mustang Horse". Although the design makes people think that it's mustang related,I make sure and state that it is just the silhouette of a running horse. Plus,It's not like I'm running a business off of this and banking in money. If I were,I'd make sure to at least get a permit/licensing on any design that is actually related to a logo of an organization order to avoid copyright infringement.

No reasons to defend your actions with me, I agree.
Just remember the people trolling won't agree and they make their livings going after this kind of stuff, hobby or not.
All it took was one letter and I'm convinced.

Not specifically that item, and not this forum, but very similar. My $135 consult with my lawyer concluded I could make it for my own personal enjoyment, but even giving as a gift could be considered infringement.
Apparently, chasing small guys and vigorously defending the trademark gives them a stronger case when they go up against the big people who make a ton of money doing it, or so I was told.
I'm not a lawyer, and not trying to be a Debbie-Downer, but a registered letter showing up threatening all sorts of legal action with damages was enough to get MY attention, which I guess was the point.

Off topic, but, the UPS driver shouldn't be parking in your driveway to begin with.
Backing out of a driveway with a big truck is just ASKING for an accident.

Uhhhhh......everything you see here is my driveway ;)
He normally pulls down my driveway, turns around on my driveway, and drives away ;)
Here's the fedex ground guy 2 weeks ago (I towed him back out to the road)
Have you not seen any of my multitude of burnout videos? I thought everyone in the world has seen one by now ;)

Here I am 'plowing' my driveway ;)
And here I am sledding on it (this btw was basically what the driveway looked like 2 days later, then with a layer of ice on top that he delivered in) ;)
