Smile Grille badge

Would it be possible for the club to design a grill badge for the members to buy and display on our car?
This is just a thought as most other clubs do this and i wanted to see what the opinion of the management and the members would be.

It is in the pipeline, but has fairly low priority at this time. There are some very dynamic happenings, happening in the background.
Grill badges will be along.

We have been told several things are in the Pipeline and will be announced shortly.

One of the biggest problem for anything like this is costs.

The Voluntary Donations do not cover running costs of running site let alone all the other work carried out, and some work is funded by the people doing all this, funding it themselves. So any expensive project like that would need advance payments and minimum orders I would think.

Don't concern yourself about payments and up front money Fraser. When the club is ready to produce high quality enamelled grill badges the funds will be found to do the job properly.

Hi GG, I think this is quite a high priority, as most of us are proud owners of 75s/ZTs we would like more than anything a proper high quality badge for the Grille. The rear window stickers are nice but a proper badge would be lovely.
Will there be any window stickers available at the Essex meet? i think most of us would buy one[or 2 or 3] Dave

Great news, is that a confirmation? Dates Please.

I can sell my body out for maybe a Quid or two if needed, to help with funding GG!

Stickers, Ken is arranging a reprint, probably not ready for Essex meet but not much longer to wait.
I have to agree on the grille badges but seriously there are other things that are taking priority at the moment, I'm sure you will understand when they are announced.
