AUSTIN COOPER BONNET BADGE SIZE ???

Post by STG95F »

HI , Can someone tell me what year the bonnet badge size changed on a Austin Cooper MK1 .

I take they are both Genuine items ? . The 2 badges have rear markings (AJW B'HAM 24A 1 and one has 24A 71) ) , but the size is different ( see photos)


Any help ??

Thanks Ian

The small one is a replica. Bought one like that years ago, a better copy than the latest items (I think), but still a replica.

Yes, look at the pins. They don't even line up with the originals.

Pete do you know what club had them remade ?? How did they get away with putting original makers marks on them ?? . To Be honest its a very good replica and the quality is amazing .

Just on the small side :roll:
