We have just received the quote for the FC horn cap, they will retail for around $125.00 is this and expectable price and is there still interest in them at that price

I guess a sample would need to be seen before I said yes or no.

Hi Les,
I think, if it's on a comparable level of quality as that of the rear tail badge, $125.00 sounds like a very good price.
I guess I would also have to see the test sample after it had been left to bake in the sun for a while to see how the modern paint reacts!! But then again even the original ones faded  ::) and that is what has brought us here.........

p.s.. bugger..... does this mean the value of my NOS horn button has dropped significantly??   ;D

would be interested in 2, of course would also have to see a sample :)
tests have proven that the final words before a fatal urban car crash are "OH ****"

in a rural car crash they are " Hold my stubby and watch this for skill!"

Yep, Like to see the finished product, but sounds fair enough to me.

The manufacturer is the same one as the FC boot badge so the quality will not be a problem the problem will be selling enough we would have to believe we can sell 150-175 quickly before we proceed, the rest we will keep long term.

I'm sure it would be possible to take some sort of poll of members to gauge interest....but I don't know who would be prepared/able to put up the $20k guarantee to get things started.....

There is of course all of the potential sales to people not on the forum or the 'net.
95% of the SA Club don't get on the forum, either that or they are lurkers.

les

I will see if we can do a special for the forum on preorders as long as the quality is up to the mark. Rares do not normally do preorders but this may be a special case, I will try for a discount as well on preorders for forum members

Great to here from you Les
I would buy a couple at least at that price. Do you think the boot badge will sell in those quantities all at once? When will we see the boot badge ? Any chance they would make the FE bonnet insert?
Cheers,
Graham

I'd be interested aswell, but still waiting for the boot badges to become available, as I'm hanging to finish the back end of the car, and the boot badge is all I need.  Now to the front of the car...

PS....any ETA on teh boot badges...please.
