there used to be a company that advertised in the Classic 'jumbler paper, I'll have a look later and see if they still do (I'll see if I can find an old copy of Old Glory too as I think I may have seen an ad in there too)

Two tips - if you want brass coloured aluminium plaques - look for a local screen printer, do your own layout in MSWord or photoshop and take along a lazer printed copy. They will charge you for the total number of square centimetres printed, and a small cutting charge.

As an alternative I get silver or gold coloured plastic business cards for about £25 per 100. Again there is probably someone local to you doing hot foil printing.

Both are cheaper that the national companies marketing to the classic car sector.
