Title: 65 gransport badges
Post by: Robin Cook on July 13, 2020, 02:31:26 PM

Can someone provide the correct color red? For restoring my badges? I assume testers enamels from hobby stores might be the answer, but can’t figure out the color.
I also had a replacement trunk lid on my project and need the pattern or measurements for the badge to trunk location. Any help?

Is the replacement deck lid a skylark? If so the splade holes can be used if they are there! The single pin hole
Which is under the Letter G will have to be drilled! I have a template cut from a original Gran Sport deck lid!

 Maybe a special or a replacement that wouldn't have the the emblem holes to start with! Here are a couple shots of template on Skylark lid! PM sent
