Bob,
Back around the summer of 2000, I had the same wish... to have a
badge bar on my 1962 TR4. I always loved the look of the older
TRs and other LBCs with a badge bar. I never found a commercial
source... but one of the guys on the list from Texas was making a
custom badge bar of his own design. His name is Vern Burnett.
You can see how it was made and how it looks installed on the car
at:

It is a really elegant design and fits quite well. I don't know
how to contact Vern or whether he is still making those badge
bars. I searched my TR4 mail achieves and only found this old
email address from circa 1999.
VB157234@MSXSOPC.shell.com.
However, a internet white pages search on www.switchboard.com
shows a Vern Burnett still lives in Cypress, TX. Email me
privately if you can't look him up. I don't want to plaster his
name, address and phone number on the internet without his
consent.
Hope this helps
