83-84 T/A - "Automatic Overdrive" Lettering on Shift Plate

Can anyone out there provide me a high res, dead on, close up shot of the "Automatic Overdrive" lettering that was silk screened on to the shifter plate for the 1983-84 Firebirds? It would be even better if you could place a ruler along the bottom for scale. I am going to have some new silk screens made of this, since 99% of the cars out there (including mine) is rubbed off.

Looking forward to the results of your efforts. I would be interested in refreshing the lettering on my shifter plate too

Beautiful, thank you! I'm first going to have a graphic artist produce a digital file on this, and then I'll see about having a silk screen made. I will keep you updated on my progress!

Cool. Keep me posted if your efforts work out. I would love to do something similar for my hatch release & defroster buttons.
