Thanks i now know the site where the original pic came from never seen one in the wild didnt even know it existed till then. Does anyone else have other images of this badge or better still know where i can get hold of one ? Thanks 8-)

Good morning everyone I hope this finds you all safe and in the best of health given the current trying circumstances 8-(. As we are all in lockdown around the world its time to be catching up on things. For me one of these happens to be the history behind this badge, Stated as a Desoto 8 i cannot find any referencs to it any where ? .... I am starting to assume it is a after market additon but cannot find any references to it.Any and all info on this subject appreciated ,enclosed a pic to help with identification 8-). Thanks in anticipation ...... Downunder Aussie !!

I think he is talking about me Richard, in response yes 50% on both accounts , helps keep the interest going in the quiet moments and that's all I am really prepared to say 8-) Gordon

That's a private page you gave me that only allows you to log into it. So no joy there. Happy thanksgiving !! G m!m "This page is private. Oops! You don't have permission to view this page. Here's a link back to your home page." As shown to me by Flickr 8-(

Hi Still waiting ...................................................................... Are you providing more info and images on this item you have ? Gordon m1m

Hi Richard To make things a little easier enclosed are two images of headlamp emblems that I think you have described , not worried about cleaning up I can do that Thanks Gordon Problems yet again !! can see only the link to a URL coming up on screen and a blank area when you try to access the local pc for location of saved image 8-( #$@%!!!#$%&!! Ok now in advanced and image link is working

Hi there Only just saw your thread Its that What I assume is a horn button ? in the right of the picture is this plain or does it have a name on it and if so do you have any other images of it Thanks Gordon

Sounds very interesting if you can either post pics here or pm so I can have a look see ! Thanks for that Gordon 8-)

Morning Richard Do you have any emblems or badges for sale ? Thanks Gordon

This is what you mean, would really like a confirmation of the black enamel for this type of emblem Gordon

<o:p1941 Desoto Custom Business Coup 8-)</o Hi again I have noticed this image and was wondering if anyone here would know the background as to why the radio emblem and horn button both appear to be black as opposed to the traditional Blue ?. Would this be because of the war restrictions. Thanks Gordon

Yup this looks very much like the images , what we need here now is someone who actually owns or has some pics of the area in question so if you can help please weigh in ! Thanks Gordon 8-)

Hi again After many fruitless attempts of trying to upload system finally let me do it the next day 8-( ? Finally got the image uploaded here is the back of the badge you cant see it but the threaded rod extends a little under 1cm, way too much I would think for headlamp band to accept without being in contact with the lens I may be wrong as I don't have access to one to check it out. Thanks Gordon

Hi Folks Enclosed closeup image of the horn button badge Notably the horn button has a longer threaded shaft, this would be too much for the headlamp band i would think? Thanks Gordon

Hi all Thanks for that I assume you mean the emblem that was on the horn button would fit the band and not that this image is the same as the band shown previously as it is the same band Thanks Gordon

Morning Richard Sorry not for sale part of my treasure chest ! but i do have a question to go along with this, would this badge fit a 1933 DeSoto headlamp band like was shown by auburnseeker in Sept of this year? anyone Thank you Gordon

Hi there Thanks for your input that really helps, sorry it isn't for sale as I thought it was very unusual when I came across it and took a punt to acquire it for myself. Any other info would be helpful ! thank you Gordon :cool:

Hi again Folks Going through my "treasure box" and came across this item. I am reasonably certain it may be a horn button from a 40s desoto cannot be sure as no reference # etc. Any help appreciated Thanks again Gordon

Morning Folks Jim thank you for that, I was going along that line myself but could not find any reference to the horn itself having the emblem so decided I was looking in the wrong direction. thanks once again for that by chance Jim do you hail form Alberta ? and had a article written about you. Thanks again Gordon

:cool: Ok Folks Am trying again cannot edit my previous post so will add images to this one

Hi Folks Can you help me identify what year this Desoto horn is from ? The emblem has Fox Company Cincinatti and the horn interior has DPCD 640202 Thanks for any guidance you can give Gordon For some reason I cannot upload images site says I do not have permission and to refresh page, have done this a few times and its now stuck in this loop ? HELP

I like it !! Thinking outside the box, I don't suppose you have spares ? could be a market for driver quality parts. Still looking around for the base mount even a pic of what the whole thing looked like would be great Gordon 8-)

:)Hi there As there is a lot of interest in this hood emblem i would like to ask you collectively does anyone here know where i can get a mounting base from to go with my emblem ? no idea of the actual part number but have modified a pic seen here . Enclosed a pic of my ornament # is : DC 763708 someone here may have a spare they are willing to sell or a contact for me to try as being "Down under" does not give me many avenues for parts as you guys have here ! Thanks Gordon
