    WTB: Early "Orange Bar" Hood Badge

    To complete my '70 911T project I need a hood badge in good condition. I had an accident and cracked the enamel in one of the bars in the original.
    Can anyone help, please.

    Early Hood Badge restoration

    In case you want to keep your original badge, you can have your own badge repaired at http://heywoodenamels.com/main/car_b...ration_07.html. Allen Haywood has done 3 early hood badges for me and they are perfect. He is a great guy to deal with.

    Lee, RSR1975

    That information is as good as a free, NOS badge. Thank you very much.

    Genuinely appreciated

    WOW! That end result was WAY better than expected. I'm considering sending him one of my haggard originals.

    If you don't mind, what is the average cost for something like that?

    Marco,
    Spoke to Allan Heywood today and was advised that it's USD$220.00 plus $38.00 for S&H. The work certainly looks impressive though. My badge is on it's way.
