Sorry but the original mold gave out. I guess it was to old and could not keep up. Thanks to everyone that ordered one. Sorry but we cannot make anymore.

Badges/Emblems

You have asked for them and now they are back. The GT/CS dash and steering wheel badges. These badges once produce have how been re-created in cast resin. Handmade and painted, each one is made to order. Open on the attached PDF and ‘CLICK’ on the ‘ORDER NOW’ and you will be sent to PayPal where you can select your payment option. Delivery time in Canada/United States 1-2 weeks, worldwide 2-3 weeks.

Thank you for recreating these Limelyt and for the PM!!!! which I cannot reply to for some reason.

West Coast Cougar Classics

Ordered both and went on to West Coast Cougar Classics and ordered the steering wheel components to make this work!

I really like WCCC. Great site/store.

Best, Wally

Thanks for posting / creating these! I've been drooling over these for years since I first saw similar one's on another car on this site (P. Newitt's old car??).

Ordered two sets so that I have a back-up for the inevitable next project.

Thanks again!

Standard Interior Options

Gary,

I have standard interior. I was able to order the steering wheel center, etc to put the steering wheel badge. Not sure what to do with the other badge which goes over the glove box area. Does anybody use the other badge over standard camera case interior rather than woodgrain?

Don't really want to change my interior to woodgrain.

Thoughts?
Thanks, Wally

I think just installing it over the camera back will be fine. You do not need the woodgrain. That photo was of our car and that is what we have.

I ordered both, glad their back. Saw it once in a photo and was wondering where I could get it. I only plan to install the dash plaque first. I bought the steering wheel one but I don’t plan to run an original steering wheel. Not sure where I will install the other badge but for 20 bucks for something custom like this I couldn’t pass it up.

Gary,

The badges arrived Friday and look great. Thanks for making these!

Quick question: What is the best glue for the steering wheel badge? I'm thinking something like ShoeGoo to bond the resin to the rubber insert.

Right now, I'm considering ordering a new passenger dash insert and carefully removing the built-in emblem and attaching the new CS in that space. I'll send pics when done.

West Coast Classic Cougar has used Cougar pads that are the correct shape.
