Viscount Gran Sport

[PaulDC]

Hi all, I am restoring an old Viscount Gran Sport and I need a good picture of the gran sport decal so a guy can make some up for me. I have heard this name had a few changes, Grand Sport/Sports or Gran Sport/Sports. I am not fussy which one you have, I would just like something to go back on the top tube.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You might struggle with this. There aren't many Viscount owners on here and not many of them have non-Aerospace models. They are very rare these days.

You might be better off getting a set of Viscount Aerospace decals off eBay and seeing if the seller of this one can make you one up with 'sports' instead of 'touring': https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/311918140129

The typeface looks correct: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/1206079-viscount-gran-sport.html

I thought the Grand sport was an aerospace model. From memory it was Aerospace Sport (met blue or red), Aerospace Grand Sport (a met brown or sky blue) and Aerospace Pro (silver)

Hi Pigman, yes the Gran Sport is an Aerospace model, you are quite correct.
Johnny69, thank you for that link, I have already found a guy on ebay willing to make the decals but he wanted an idea of what they should look like. That picture should help

Hello, I was wondering how it went with the decals in the end?
I've just got hold of a Grand Sport and the decals are a bit worse for wear, not just the Grand Sport lettering
but the other Viscount decals too.

There is a Lambert/Viscount group here with well informed people and excellent background information on the Marques: https://viscountandlambert.boards.net/

I got a set from a seller in eBay who has started doing the grand Sport decals.
