Grantura Bonnet Badge - Help Needed

[maxxander]

Hello Chaps, bit of a cheeky request. I'm trying to find out the dimensions of the classic Grantura Bonnet Badge (the inverted traingle)as I have found a company that's able to manufacture a new one for me but as I no longer have my original badge I'm a bit skuppered!! If someone has the dimensions to hand or could measure their badge for me I would be very grateful. Regards, Tony

As far as I know there are at least 2 different types of reproductions on the market.

At home I have the original badge, and two repros. One of them is from a British company that offers different badges of many kinds of vehicles in emaille. Don't know the name, but i'm sure they will be at Techno Classica in april.

Thanks for that, sadly I can't get over to Germany for the show. I've googled Reproduction Car Badges in the UK but can't find anyone with TVR badges so it's looking as though I will have to go down the route of having one made.Any chance that you could measure yours for me??

Have you tried Steve Reid - "The Gamekeeper" on PH? Be surprised if he can't help.

The company mentioned on the Fair in Essen is http://www.badgecraft.co.uk/. They reproduce the early type TVR front badge, unfortunatly not the rear badge...... Will cost around 100 GBP
