Title: Grille badge again
Post by: Jonno on February 22, 2008, 09:01:27 PM
Just been up to the Ballarat swap today. Current price for a NOS FC grill badge (with insert) is $500 :o, with old crappy ones fetching $300.  I wonder has there been any movement on this project:

or are Rares likely to consider making a repro?

I got a nice set of the plates which hold the rear spring rubbers (not sure what they are called..but they are usually stuffed) plus undamaged front windscreen moulds all for $10 which was probably the highlight of my day......plus a few other items at more normal prices. However I think ebay is taking a toll.....not only is everything generally more expensive but I couldn't help but notice that they have canned the usual Sunday opening of the swapmeet.  Can't complain too much though as I use ebay just like everyone else....just a sign of the times.
