[Healeys] Which One?

[Jean Caron]

Michael,
Well, here is what I found. I looked on page 42 of the Haynes great cars book Austin-Healey and when you enlarge the photo at the bottom of the page, if it is an original badge, the bottom one in your photo seems to be the most correct.
Same goes for a photo in Clausager book on page 30.

Subject: [Healeys] Which One?

Too hot to go out to the garage to work on the BN2 again today, so I have been going through my vast inventory of parts to see what I need for the next project on the restoration.  I came across a Moss Classic Gold box for the "Austin-Healey" script for the boot lid and found two badges inside.  I realy don't remember when I bought two, but I have a bad habit of buying somethig on sale when I already have that item squirreled away in some plastic tub already.  I took them out ot look and found they are not exactly the same.  Take a look at the pictures and you can see the difference. mostly on the right side of the badge.  The top pf the "H" in Healey has two different size arrows and the loop in the cursive "y" at the end of Healey are different sizes.  To top it off the dimpled surface below the lettering is more pronounced than the other.  Any idea if either of these badges are close to an original?
