I'm just starting to restore my 61 Lakewood. I don't have the Lakewood script. Does anyone know where they can be found? I've done some searching to no avail. I think that the part number might be:
4785076 A.R. rr, fndr, lwr mid(g?) frt
Clarks makes plastic repro, but an OEM would be nice.
Cheers

They should be able to meet your needs for used but serviceable Corvair parts.

1962 Corvair Monza Station Wagon
The Corvair station wagon, marketed as the Lakewood, joined the lineup in 1961. In 1962, the bottom line 500 series station wagon was dropped and the 700 became the base station wagon. The "Lakewood" name was dropped. In spring of 1962, Corvair station wagons were discontinued. So only 32,120 Corvair station wagons (500, 700, or 900 Monza) were ever produced in 1961-1962. All had the 2 carburetor 145 Cubic Inch engine.
