Default Where have all the badges gone?

(You could put that to music). As far as I can see only two of the very worthy Calendar Cars proudly portrayed the Club Badge. I'm sure they're all stalwarts of the club but why the shyness?

For those who've never seen one, or have forgotten it's the ones on the left below.

PS I have no connection or shares in the badge maker . . .

Make that 3 cars

Mine's a side on shot, so the badge is out of view, but rest assured it's there, in pride of place on the offside of the main grill

Funnily enough I was looking at the club grille badges just yesterday and thinking of buying one so this seems like a suitable thread to ask how they are fitted? Is any disassembly required or do they just fit on somehow from the outside? I mean, I wouldn't want to have to remove the radiator just to fit one.

Why remove the radiator? Two bolts through the grill, or wherever you want to fit one 😎 mines on the lower grill 👍

My last two have been stolen off my 75s!

Two full chrome grills destroyed over it all.

Yes, I'm presuming though that you have to access the rear of the grille with a hand/spanner etc to put nuts onto the end of the bolts? Or not?

Removing the grill is a 2 minute job, just the 2 plastic screws on top 😎
