Speedwell badge

Post by Phil Perfect »

Is there any picture of these badges on a car?
On the bonnet, on the bootlid? Where were they fixed?

Sometimes they were shoehorned onto the front under the normal Austin Cooper badge (Speedwell were Austin dealers). Other times they were fitted to the boot lid, sometimes they had both. Sometimes the Speedwell badge replaced the normal front badge too.

The truth is there was no "official" place to fit these badges. But the images below are of a car that received the full Speedwell treatment from new.
