Front Badge question

Post by Sawdusty »

Does anyone know what front badge was originally fitted to an English Austin Moke built 12 June 1967 at Longbridge and originally exported to the Virgin Islands? There are two mounting pin holes that are 3 & 11/16" on center. Thanks for the help. Dan

Hi Dan
Believe it or not, but on English Mokes there was no "Moke" badge on the vehicle at all.

Instead there was simply an Austin or Morris badge pop rivetted to the front panel. They are made of tin metal and are identical to the ones used on the rocker covers of many BMC cars including Minis and Mokes.

Hi Roger, Thanks for the help. I saw the reference to M-Parts in the footnote. I am working with an M-Parts shell. Are you part of the company? Dan
