Just rang Shane. Sending him some special badges to do for Me.
Told me won't get them back till around February which is fine by me.
Post pics when I get them.

I should post some pics of my badge that was broken and repaired then chromed.

These guys are the best !!!

I'll be sending my Special Badges off tomorrow to Shane.

The pic below shows the damage that was done screwing the badges onto the FB.
WTF! Why screw badges on with self tappers?
The boot badge was the worst, it just fell apart when I unscrewed it.
All have no pins




These are one's I brought from a wrecker a while back to replace them
when I found out the problems with the rares spares ones.
These have most pins.




This little gem I picked up off Gumtree, unsused N.O.S Boot Badge
Been sitting in this guys dad's wordrobe for 45 years!
Still like brand new and in it's GMH box.
I had to buy it, when's the next one's comming up for sale?
Oh yes has all it's pins.



Ok, we have to wait until late February to see how the Special Badges look like.

Thanks for posting the tip Steve

Had a go tonight at welding one up. I made a mess of it.

Don't you talk. Look at all the NOS parts you collected for the front of your wagon. I have to get that yet.

MMMMMMMMM.................me!
Had two spare off a paddock wreck, polished them up, drilled holes in 'em and self tappered to the front sides of our vintage caravan to match the Wagon
They were missing all of their pins though, so not THAT guilty!

Can't wait to hear if this bloke can fix these old badges though as I have quite a few in the shed that could help out some forum members here

Has anyone used "The Diecast Wizard" in Queensland?
Just curious has he advertises in "Just Cars" but not mentioned here?

I just got back all my chrome (except for bumpers) from The Diecast Wizard and it's great.
Cost a bit but the service was great and I'm happy with the job done.
They also repair broken badges.
Apart from the place in Queenbeyan and Johnny Walker's Bumpers at Coffs Harbour (where I will be taking the bumpers), The Diecast Wizard was the only place with good recommendations that I came across.

Manda.

Got the Special Badges back today from Shane
They are so well done and will look fantastic against the Belmont Green.
Highly Recommened, The cost was $145 each.







A little bit more done and getting closer all the time.

Looks fantastic. I wonder how they weld it. I had a go and ended up with a molten blob.

There will be one NOS comming up very soon

My guess is they are brazed.

Life's so much easier when you shave your car and sell the badges.
