It will be very hard, if not impossible, to find an original one. They are custom made by a jeweler for Emory after he completes a build.
I'm sure there are knock-offs on some website
I think I got mine from this site years ago, but it is not original to my knowledge...
If I were buying a Rod Emory Special from anyone I'd be asking for the Outlaw badge that Rod puts on every car. If they don't have it I'd question the authenticity of the car. And if anyone told me they were selling an original Rod Emory Outlaw badge I'd ask where the car is. Because one without the other likely never happens. Unless the car was totaled but even then I doubt it.
I believe at one time a company in India was making these badges.
They are on eBay. India sounds right. I’m building a fake Emory outlaw. So I think a fake badge is ok. No one on this site is doing 100% original. But there are some pieces on our cars that can go on an original. Head lamps, turn signals etc. I’ve decided that I want a car that looks like an Emory Outlaw and also that it feels “vintage”. Doing a Type 4 with a 901 Porsche transmission. So all of these cars are a blend. I’ve got a “real” Emory key fob and a fake grill badge. Who cares.
I’ve been researching the origin of the Emory badge. The eagle is a Reichsadler. It dates back to the Holy Roman Empire. It later became the emblem of the Germanic Empire. And later was the emblem of the ADAC Car Club of Germany. It was also on a few early Nazi flags and was the inspiration of the Nazi Eagle. So you can make it into whatever the heck you want to. I just think it’s cool and historical.
Try sending this retailer in India a note they also have an ebay store
expocity@yahoo.co.in , name of the person I dealt with was Sujata Rani… several of us here have purchased from him.
— or their eBay stores in India… just send the seller an email via ebay.

Got mine here. I don't see the Outlaw badge for sale. But I'm sure they could make more. Lot's of cool looking car badges.
I may have made this up in my head, but I think I saw an interview with Rod recently where he discussed the grille badge and it's origin in the business. Something he said led me to believe he was trying to prevent the fakes from being sold.

That's correct, when they were 1st available through Rod I bought a grill badge and a shift knob to match both are no longer available but an Outlaw key chain is.
Hello to all,
Thanks for all your help and suggestions, looks like this Car Badge may be harder to find than I anticipated. I'll just keep on looking.......Thanks again! (a knock-off would be just fine with me!)
I gave up when I was looking for one and settled for an ADAC badge.
You think those grill badges are hard to find?
Try finding one of these from 2006 - Only 52 were made:
I've got two of the India made OUTLAW badges. Had them about 3 years. One was for PanhandleBob but he ghosted me?

Hi....can I persuade you to sell one?....if so PM me with your price and address....just in case I can't find it from the last time...Thanks
Sorry Greg. Completely slipped my mind. I will be glad to pick it up from you and pay interest on whatever it cost.
Didn't intend to create an issue for you.
I can come to your end of the bay any time this week to get it.
I just ordered one from curiocity9882@hotmail.com. It was $85 including shipping.
