Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
The reason I asked as the tailgate on my fb has the reminants of a different style of badge.
There is one on evilbay at the moment, item number 270694589339.
This is the same type of badge.
Can anyone tell me what model holden it suits.The tailgates have been swapped during its life.

FE/FC badge. The tail gates are the same shape.

G'day FJWALLY,
A couple of years ago there was a project done by Sam Princi to replicate these badges. I pulled the badge off my FB sedan, and Sammy got some moulds made up. He had some cast and plated, and they came up pretty good. As thanks for loaning him the badge, Sammy gave me one of the repros.
Sadly, there was a kerfuffle over the badge intellectual property, and Sammy had to cease his project. Another eBay seller was also offering reproductions for about $200, but he too seems to have dried up.
I think I still have the badge that Sammy gave me. It will do more good on your ute than it will do in my spare parts department. It cost me nothing, and you are welcome to have it for what it cost me
.
If you want it, please PM me an address to post it to. Remind me again in about a fortnight's time (I'm on the road for work at present, and have a head like a sieve).
Cheers,
Harv
