Owners club badge wanted
« on: February 06, 2013, 11:54:50 »
I am looking for an owners club badge for my Aceca and would welcome any advice.
   I believe "Gladman & Norman" of Birmingham made some!
   
   Thank you in advance!

Hi Raymond. You`re in luck, there`s one on eBay at the moment, (5 days to go) although not a Gladman & Norman.
   
   
   
   
   p.s.,Did you have any luck with getting a steering wheel?
   Cheers, Nik.

Many thank's Nik, as for the steering wheel, although not purchased yet I shall buy a Moto-lita wheel and boss which enables me to retain the horn and indicators in the centre of the wheel.

    Nik.
   

   
   What is the purpose of the 'cone' attachment on the back?

Dunno. It`s on mine too, maybe it`s a manufacturing feature?

It`s actually solid, but I like your thinking!

It is actually the competition speed brace to prevent excessive slipstream bending the badge back.

Did you get the badge, Raymond? I think it`s the most expensive one I`ve seen go on eBay!

Sadly no, I thought my bid of £127.50 would have bought it - perhaps because we advertised it here it went for so much - indeed we should ask for a commission!

I`ll message you 'off-forum' if I spot another!
   Fingers crossed one will come up again soon.
