Not one for the purist original badge collectors, but I liked it!



A one-off badge for a coachbuilt 165 conversion. Presumably a cut-and-shut using a late 164E and early 265 GLE badges, but quite well done

Hi Erik,
When did the revised script Overdrive badge come in (that matches the de Luxe and Grande Luxe)?
Thanks, Kean

It came in 1971 and was on the -72 as well

So:
early style badges 1967-1970

mid style badges 1971-1972

late style badges 1973-1974

and for 1975 only the 164e in "240 style"

Fantastic knowledge!
Thanks.
I've never seen the 71/72 Overdrive badges for sale - are they very rare indeed?

Search for Volvo Emblem or Volvo Badge and some nice stuff comes up :P

sorry for reviving a really old thread but just to add some words to a couple of items

165 chassis 000001 wears standard 164 badges on the sides and i seem to recall on the tailgate as well (not e badges as the engine was the carburettor version.) jj (how i know saintjohn) should have some old pics lying around from before the restoration started.

as for the 164 TE i´ve owned 2 in my time and have seen many more - they´re almost as common as the regular 164E in australia. from memory the deal was only 3 colours: metallic light blue with blue interior, metallic gold and metallic dark teal (my favourite - of course both of my TEs were the other colours :| ) the latter 2 with beige leather. they had headlamp wipers, air conditioning, quadraphonic stereo, rear headrests, rear reading lamps and the badges on the wings and the front and back. the boot was fully carpeted (sometimes in black, sometimes in blue) including the wheel bulges and i can´t remember if the bonnet light was standard on only the TE or also the E but the boot light was standard on the TE only even though the cutouts for the nuberplate lights to illuminate the boot remained. i think that´s it but i may have forgotten something...

would be very curious to see the 1970 grand luxe badge from 1970 as this thread is the 1st i´ve heard of it and nearly 20 years after 1st becoming interested in the 140s/164s i thought i knew it all

I am very interested in seeing photos of the 164 TE, especially good photos showing the rear TE emblem mounted on the car.

I am still looking for any information on the red lettered early 164 fender emblem.
The ones I have seen online seem to come mostly from Holland and the one I have, pictured, came from Holland too

On this picture you can see how the overdrive-badge looked on the Amazon
1964-66 (rigth lower corner) to my knowledge there wasnt a automatic-badge for those years.
