Default Emblem

Ken,

The pictures Ive seen, show them in chrome with no other paint on them. Pictures were from the book Blueprint to Victory. One was a line of brand new trucks at the Ford plant in Windsor, the other of a Allied soldier painting his sweethearts name on the bonnet of a truck. The badge is clearly shown in the photo.

I would guess that the badges were painted over in any respray the trucks had done to them during their time in service.

They were the boot badge of a 36 ford car I think.

The one on the 11 cab F30 I once owned in NZ was plain chrome as are all the others I have seen. Tony is correct they were over sprayed with green when the trucks were refurbished.
