Default Motion phase III Vette emblem? (help needed)

I know that there is a huge amount of knowledge on this forum and I have been trying for days to locate this emblem that belongs on the rear of my '69 Motion Vette.

So far I got lucky and found a brand new "SS427" Impalla emblem locally. When I held it up to the back of my car, the holes that had been filled in with bondo lined up perfectly. Now I need to find some of the original Ford GT? emblems that Joel used under the SS427 Impalla emblem. So far, all of them that I can find, are thiner in the stroke of the letter than the ones that are shown in the article in Car's Magazine (Aug 69). This is the last piece of proof that I need to verifiy this was the same car that is on the cover of the afore mentioned magazine.

If anybody has access to 67 Mustang GT emblems or a pic of them from back then please let me know. I have been told that these are what Joel used and yet all of the reproductions I can find are not the same. I have been told that they are a first design or early 67 GT emblem and then they made a skinny GT emblem which is all that I can find now. Thank God that I don't need two pair of them. Of course I would take them if I can find some.

(I am posting a pic of the original GT emblems that came on my '70 Motion Phase III car but they are different from what is on the back of the '69 SS427 that was Joel's first Phase III car). These are the correct emblems for the '70, as they are still on the car today.

Thanks in advance, to all that take the time to read this. I realize that I am asking for a Ford part on a GM forum but they are a part of the past too and it is ok if we admire more than one car maker's products. In fact I used to run a used Car lot called Super Cars here in Tulsa OK. I loved all of them. I had so much fun back then. All of the cars of the late 60's through the early '80's were fun.
Please post if you have any knowledge you can share on this subject.
