Hello chaps

I don't suppose anyone knows the whereabouts of one of the small badges?

I have one missing on my car and its beginning to bug me.

Pulfer & Williams was the original manufacturer and continues to supply this type of item; whether they have this specific item I don't know. The company changed hands a few years ago with the passing of the founder's family, I believe the business continues with new ownership, LaVine Restorations.

I'm a bit confused when you say you have 1 missing; if I'm not mistaken you should only have one (lower cowl, right side).

I just received confirmation from Vivian and they do stock the badge. $125.
I believe two are correct. We have them on both sides of the speedster.

West - thanks for checking the availability and price. Those items I've bought over the years from P&W were of excellent quality.

Certainly having two (one each side) would be the exception; almost universally when a custom coachbuilder used that style of identification (as opposed to sill plates, for example) only one was used. But there are exceptions to just about everything, not to mention the occasional owner-preference when a car is restored.

Lavine Restorations (with Pulfer & Williams products) will be at Hershey, too. the "Custom by Packard" badge is not in their catalog, but she confirmed that she has it.

Dave and West,

Thank you both for your excellent advice and information.
