What are these badges for ??? Rootes ???

[FastAndy]

These have been driving me made trying to work out what they are off they were in my dads draw for years

I thought rootes with the crown but have no idea

Are you sure they are off a vehicle? They have to me rather the look of an airline badge.

[Skyedriver]

American Ford?

[Johnspex]

Chrysler? From the time they owned Rootes.

Don't think they're Rootes. I've had an Alpine and a couple of Sunbeams and none had badges like that

[FastAndy]

Could be I honestly have no idea. The Rootes thing came because it was with some imp badges

I have seen these before. They are from a Ford Zodiac Mk4 Executive.

The tops of the crowns are missing on the top one.

You're right - they weren't used on the Zodiac - I got that from a mis-labelled photo on google
