Preservation Class grille badge
« on: October 02, 2017, 21:23:18 »
Hello All,

I presented my 560SEC at the Legends of the Autobahn show last month in Monterey CA.

Representatives of MBCA looked it over and deemed it worthy to be a Preservation Class car.

The badge is really quite nice; thick with lots of heavy chrome and cloisonné.

You use European plate frame for badge display in the US. What frame shall we use in Europe? ;)

Larry, get the other side of the plate ready for symmetry when the type badge/club badge comes!

Are the preservation badges numbered/registered somehow?
