I am so glad I stumbled onto this. Wait so is he making one to show us what they will be like or is he making one for someone?

I am making this one for me and to show you what they will look like. I am also making the navy blue paw awards they used.

I will make a build thread when I get everything in and start working on it.

I received some of the stuff today. I think it will be another few weeks before I get the rest as they sometimes take their time. When I start making these for other people, I will order more than one that way I can get them to them within a week or so.

Awesome! That is all I can say. I think I remember you saying you have the navy blue awards? Did they use those that long ago? I know they used them in the early 90's.

Yes they did use the navy blue paw awards in the '81 season.

I have a replica Orange Bowl helmet that I picked up from a store downtown in Clemson. Not sure if mine has navy blue or white paws on back. But then again mine may not have any of those little paw award stickers. If I had room in my man cave I would definitely get one.

You def need to get one of their "older" helmets. I have one from a place downtown, and these guys do a better job. They do not just slap some decals on a helmet, I mean they are decals, but try to make them original as possible. Some logos are even painted. I have a 1965 helmet from them and the "C" and stripes are painted on like the originals were.

I also have another helmet with Kinard,Tuttle,Davis,Jordan signatures along with Ford of the 81 NC team.....that was a work to get all those signatures.....but is probably my most prized possession of CU memorabilia. These are the guys I grew up on when attending games as a kid.
