Spread your search for badges by posting a "want request" here. There are USA members on here who also might read this thread.

Might also be worth a PM to this guy Sillen963

So much for not spending loads. Had a quick search for bits on ebay when a mint passenger front seat appears from the USA. Guy said it had been on for 7 min when I did a Buy it Now. Just need a good back seat and glovebox lid and interior is sorted.
That scrappy in Ireland is away with it for stuff. His prices are something else.

Came across a guy in the US who has a few crown badges but he is an "emblem collector" and is holding them to swap for other rare badges. I offered $100 but no was reply.

Had a visit to a guy with a load of Volvo 200 (and other) cars and a load of scrap in a shed thats about to cave in. Typical of the type he is 84and terrified that someone else will make a profit out of his stuff so puts a mad price on things like £300 for a 240 door and every car in the shed is going to be restored by him. Ive known him a long time and he hasnt changed. He will croak and the lot will be cleared to the scrappy. I`ll keep working on him to try and liberate the cars one by one.
