Garage Walls are for Rally Plaques and these are equally in very good taste but I'm not sure Beethoven 9 would approve.

Got those as well- including a number for "Motoring News" events more years ago than I care to remember and one for the Manx Rally when we got overtaken at a great rate of knots by Andy Dawson in his Clan Crusader. Still, it was nice to be one of the few Cooper'S's among three zillion Escorts G

That looks like a very neat job Robbie. Is it an off the shelf number or did you have it made specially?

Aeroman,
I sourced this from the factory via my dealer. It was to come unpainted, but the one they sent was a really good paint job - a nice silver colour! I thought about changing it to the body colour, but when I offered it up to the car I liked the silver - so it stayed the way it came!!!
Cheers!

I never intended to be a badge collector, and I don't think I am when I look around.  But the MSCC badge was so alluring in that glass case two years ago...........   So was the MSCC Yorkshire badge. Who can resist the White Rose? ........  And then I handled a centenary badge......well, I couldn't resist that either..........  Then a couple of weeks ago I was looking on e-bay, and found this one...........   "1910" eh?  And finally - this one turned up soon after...........  "1909" eh? - so it changed after 1980...... If anyone else has a Regional Club Badge, please add to the post.  Dave, ever thought of building a car around a badge? and not the other way around? BTW amazing badges and full of hidden promise,like milky ways All I have for my Morgan is my fathers AA badge, and a caravan club of Australia badge in chrome and yellow highlights Ohhhhhhhhh

If you are doing nothing, how do you know when you are finished?

gerwyn,
The parts I got were originally destined for the 4 seater. It was in a brochure for the trads I saw about 3 years ago. When I got it(I think it was lying around the factory somewhere) no-one remembered how to fit it and the numberplate box design had changed in any event. I had to "Bodge" it to fit - much work with a dremel saw etc. I presume that it could be made to fit any of the trads -- If you look at my photos you'll see it neatly shrouds the radiator at the back and sides and I fabricated brackets to attach it to the bottom of the chassis as the cowl part bolts to the main chassis. I managed to reverse one of the bolts each side which gave enough free threads to do the job! I then chopped the front "Lip" to fit into the bottom of the numberplate box and located it with self tappers.
It took about 3 days working out how to do it and about 3 hours to do the job!! If you like the effect - chat to Peter C in Newtown I got it through him.
Cheers!
