Hood handle needed

Anyone have one for sale?
thanks

Can get handles from Vintagespeedsters.com in Hawaiian Gardens California.


Doug

I have one. CMC trim piece and a Porsche badge carefully epoxied into the middle. Make me a good deal and it's in the mail ASAP. Make me a better deal than that, and I'll hit it with Mother's billet polish and throw in the seals I never used!
Seriously, it's just taking up space in my bar. I'm happy to pass it along for half the going rate.

cory,
where did you get your emblem?

Thanks
Doug

It's from his CMC Doug; it should Thomas' car with no problems.

Doug - I got my crest from Klasse356 - about $35. Replaced the CMC one perfectly. Check for list of other vendors under NEWBIE --- EMBLEMS - most all carry it. I also got rubber seals for where handle meets the hood.

Cory: Thomas was there first, so if he wants it, its his. If he doesn't, I'm interested. E-mail me directly and we can talk $.

Hood handle crest; dude says he bought it at a swap meet and is now selling it for more than $60!
Long live capitalism!

lindisfarne793 at hotmail dot com, whoever wants it.
The 356 crest was from Tweeks. It's exactly the same size as the CMC badge, with pins on the back for self-driving nuts. I trimmed those to the acceptable minimum before I put the OEM badge in the handle's recess.
I used a Dremmel to smooth the handle's inside edges and the OEM crest slipped right in, but I epoxied it just for the added insurance.
I removed the handle when I took the rest of the shiny trim off, and put a 901 badge on for a cleaner look. The handle's in as good shape now as it was when I first re-badged it, and I'll dope it up with Mother's before I mail it. It'll be purr-dee.
Just let me know who I'm gonna send it to.
The photo here is the handle with the Porsche crest in it. I got the hoopty re-painted and took the trim off about a month after this shot was taken.

"It's exactly the same size as the CMC badge"

Cory,

Thanks,

TC

Chuck, I LOVE your plates!
That's one of those "Why didn't I think of that?" things!
Handle's still available; the only e-mail was from Tim in Charleston and I haven't heard back since e-mailing him this morning (Feb. 28).
Fifty bucks, shipped. Polished and with rubber seals enclosed.

Sold! Send me where you want the check shipped.
Thanks.

Cory: thank you for the offer. I got side tracked and didn't get back here for a while.

GONE! Handle's gonna go to Chuck.
Woo-Hoo!
Thomas, I'll keep an eye on the classifieds for you. They come up from time to time.

Second E-mail sent off, just in case it doesn't get there, maybe shoot me an email and I'll put the info/address in a "return" to you.

Maybe . . .

TC, you've got mail.

Hey Cory,

Just sent two more emails . . . if they still don't go through let's forget it. Wasn't meant to happen. Gettin' bored typing "Hey Cory" anyway.

Got it. Tried from the other account; worked like a champ. Excellent!
