I’m leaning towards SirAndy’s proposal (post #166). I’m curious as to how it would look with a few modifications to his lower left image.
Specifically, change the center globe top half with a hammer-textured recessed “Earth” and smooth raised “Lat/Long” lines (both same finish as outer ring gear). I’d change the flag color order (obviously), but instead of printing out “914” in the center, I'd recommend a chrome vehicle silhouette (or raised silhouette outline) on the black flag portion. On the red portion, I'd recommend “1970-1976” in black.
The large “914” is not necessary (redundant) with the top outer circle reading “914WORLD.COM”. Either “Member” or “Vereinsmitglied” on the bottom (non-committal).
Also, by leaving out the “obvious to us” “914”, we can answer stupid questions with “It’s Ferrari – don’t touch”...Italian accent optional.
Thoughts?
