Yep, very hard to get especially with holding pins intact although according to a major supplier for early holden parts they aren't rare
and they aren't interested in re-making them
.
Do appear on ebay on the odd occasion.
I can't think what to write here so this will do.

Problem is that most cars that have badges still on them , after near 50 years , the pins are either corroded to buggery or non existant and they break off the badge when the removal process begins
.
Then it's either try to repair the badge or silastic it on to the boot lid/tailgate
.

so they are the same as the FB boot badge, i have one it is missing 1 pin if yor interested i'll check the condition
someone give me an idea of what it's worth, i know what they sell on ebay for and that's where it was going but better deal for forum members
