    I have a good ornament (the Griffon) but need to find the enameled badge for my 33 ET-8 Convertible project. Can anyone help by selling one to a good home (picture attached) or by lending a very nice one to have copied?
    Thanks,
    Ivan

    Is that in Bent's shop?

    Roy, Yes, the car is in "Bent's" shop where he is doing a great job of "restoring" the body removing the effects of time, use, rust, and well meaning but crude hot rodding in its "Street Rod" life. Hoping that a radiator emblem will come my way through this forum.
    cheers,
    Ivan

    I may have a spare that I picked up on ebay but I paid too much for it, not perfect but decent.

    Check and see if you have one. Seems like I'm getting used to paying too much. You can email me at: ivanz62@comcast.net
    Cheers,

    Here's the grille shell of the 33 Cv with the "custom" peak and no ornament. And the last of the 1969 car show paint.

    What is being done to the car? Can you share any pictures?
