I am trying to track down a M3 St Christopher dashboard badge! These were fitted to Morgans in the 30s. The MTWClub does have replicas - but I understand that u have to have a "correct" year car to be eligible for one - via the Club Registrar.  My brother has a beauty which Dad had attached in front of his seat when he flew in a Lancaster Bomber in WW2 - naturally he is reluctant to part! Anyway any help or ideas welcome!!

Good luck in your search ....although I'd fight your brother over your Dad's badge; it sounds just the thing for the Three Wheeler!
I search for ages and got nowhere...ended up fitting a Mike Hawthorn badge. Not the same but looks nice.

Hard to find. I'm sure your Dad would have loved his badge in front of a purring V Twin driving down English country lanes!

Nothing like a Morgan one.
Originals do turn up, but they are pricey. Keep an eye on eBay. They will of course be stamped with a chassis number.
The MTWC replicas are only sold to members who have the car, but not the badge, and the history of the car checks out. They are always sold with the chassis number stamped on and a small mark to indicate the badge is a replica (the replica mark was my idea as there were worries they might be passed off as originals).
Many 2 and 3 speed Morgans no longer have an original badge as quite a lot of people, when they sold the car years ago, kept the badge.

Perhaps there would be a demand for a new MTW badge of a slightly different design. Or perhaps a new generic Morgan St Christopher badge.
Is there a photo of the original?

I'd sure like one that looks like the old one for my new 3W dash. I agree a generic one would be most universal.
