Ever bought any badging off them? I got some of the all-in-one TRIUMPH
badges for my 59 Coupes off them (the boot-badge, same as on a TR3),
absolute CRAP! Look nothing like the originals, the letters are all the
wrong shape - why bother? It wouldn't take any more work to tool up
properly, it just might help to look at an original first!
I subsequently managed to find a new original badge (at a price though),
so I don't have to use the horrible things yet, hopefully I'll find one
for the other car in time!
Cheers,
Bill.
