that makes sense as I thought ..most I see for sale are a late 72-74 thanks haul and 210bhp

Would a new one from Sierra Madre Collection suffice? ..they're reasonably priced

That info is garbage and full of errors. I'll try and take some photos soon.

Ok good, but give some information on whats the ndifference between the 2
both made by the same manufacturer but they were not made at the same time
they did not have two different versions in the same year so explain to me the version difference.. the separation at the LEG and years they go too.

No I'm looking for a original
I have a repop to put on after my paint is ready if I can't find the right one for the right price

What evidence do you have of that? I think it's very likely there was significant crossover of badge varieties over multiple years. I'll try to post some photos of badges I can document to specific years when I have an extra hour.

Note that both of these badges have the smooth back but the fronts are different specifically at the top front leg. One has the pointy object coming out from the body and the other has the flat object.

Top 2 pictures are from a badge for sale on Ebay right now:

Bottom 2 pictures are from the P914.com site:

So my conclusion is that there was more than 1 supplier of the so-called early smooth back badges.
