Starting to restore my old van and would like to shmick it up a little. I have owned this since my 17th Birthday 44 years ago. If anyone has a Grille Badge in good nick it would be put to good use. Also is anyone has a Wilsonia gauge that they have had in the cupboard and wouldn't mind it being used, I'd appreciate any leads. Cheers folks.

Doesn't look like it will go cheap.

And the chrome looks a bit beaten up.

Don't forget the only chrome you see is the raised lip...

 The "chrome" is actually s/steel & will polish up. As mentioned, you only see the raised edge when the gauge is in place.

 Just checked out the final price for the Wilsonia Gauge. $760! I know we all have a similar story, however, I purchased a "boxful" of these, all NOS, for $39 each. when I started my restos back in the 80's
   Amazing to see the prices these go for now.  Shocked Kevin.
