What is the name of the California Special script. I've seen it here before but can't seem to find it now.

You mean the name of the font used for the script? The "California Special" script was hand crafted, so they didn't use a font.

There are probably fonts similar, but not exact. The closest I've found is BombatDB. It's not too far off in general, but the "S" is nowhere close.

Does anyone know if there is any kind of a "stamping" on the original script? To identify Ford, or the maker? Anything? And if so, where.

Did I get you your scripts sent back Rob? I know I had them packaged back up and can't remember if I sent them or not? Must be getting old.

Don't know if they were stamped (maybe someone has a known original that could tell?). The Ford part number was C8ZX-65291A36-A. Thanks, Casey

Cory,
Got them back just fine! These scripts are very old. They were on my car which Paul N. wanted to see. I recently found them. May be one of the first 14 sets made for the very first cars.
