Hello all-
Just returning from an absence from the list as I was at the olympics...sadly,
autox is not an event, and the judging is far less fair than at any car show I
have ever been to (though full marks to canada for handling the ripoff with
the grace and understatement I have come to respect in canadians). I missed
you all!
I finally got my hands on a TR4 badge bar, which seem pretty rare (as in, "pay
more than you want to, have a hell of a time finding htem, add nothing to the
resale value of your car)...
Now that it is almost on, the question on my mind is "what badges do I put
on?" I am not nearly as steeped in autocarna and history as many of you, so I
wanted some suggestions that would be historically relevant and fun....
First question- how many badges are appropriate? Two? Four? What is nice,
and what is "too much?" Ho much of issue is wind blockage to the grill if I
put on lots and lots of badges? In general, I lean a bit towareds "over the
top" (which is why I like the "look at all that chrome" TR4)
Second question- what badges? The list decal is de rigeur (but I dont think
there is a list badge, is there?)...as I see it, one could go down two routes-
current club badges (new england triumphs, AAA, also soon to be a member of
VTR), or historic club badges (RAC, TSAA, etc). What rae peoples thoughts?
WHat would hte correct historic badges be for a TR4? What are peoples
favorite badges (car is red)?
Where does one get the suggested badges?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Noah
PS- how do I drill holes in the chrome bumper without ruining hte chrome? Any
tricks I should be aware of?
