Hey Gary,

What's your next project to make and sell?

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.

ShoeGoo might work, we used JB weld and it has been there for 14 years now

Hey Wallace did you buy that steering wheel center insert from the West Coast Cougar?

West Coast Classic Cougar

Yes, West Coast Classic Cougar. They are great! Wally

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

Yep, I ordered one (and replacement bezel and horn ring -- the originals were showing their age). Amazingly they had a black one in outstanding condition with just minor shrinkage over 50+ years.

Everything has arrived and I'm just trying to find time for the final install.

I hadn't considered JB Weld, but that would work too. Thanks!

3M Double sided sheets

I used 3M double sided adhesive sheets cut to size to fix my badges to the horn pad and dash piece.

Worked great! It is not coming off easily.

Best, Wally

Remember me? I contacted you, I guess in July as I had not received the dash badge I ordered in early June. I had given up on it by August. Well, guess what showed up on my mailbox today? Postmarked in Calgary on 6/10/2020. Package was in fine shape as well as the badge. Not sure which side of the border was the hold up was. We'll say it was the US side and blame it on Trump.:grin:

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.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully most people got one while they were available. I'm closing this thread so people don't think they're still available.

Thanks for your efforts in getting them done.
