Hello Everyone,
I have been asked to letter a fire truck and I will be doing it in vinyl. On the old fire trucks they had someone paint the lettering and I can't find that type of font. It has the flare out of the center of the letters half way down. Does anyone know what I mean by this. Anyway if I can't find that type of font can anyone help me with one that they might use that looks nice.
Thanks for any information on this.
Stacy

On www.letterheadfonts.com there is an actual series of fonts called Fire Truck Fonts.

You can buy an individual font, or the whole series at a better rate.

I think they may be just what you are after
