The SUNBEAM 260 badges were orginal, they were used on the cross over body
MKI Tigers in the UK, perhaps in europe too?. I believe they got round the
POWERED by FORD issue for crysler. In the USA i thought the same period of
car swicthed to the SUNBEAM V8 sheilds, as featured on the MKIA and MKII.
>From what i recall there were several sheilds POWERED BY FORD 260, ALPINE
260 (europe) SUNBEAM 260 and SUNBEAM V8
