I thought that was called a gree-ille

Ramp truck got it's badges.

**Ironhorse** · 12-20-2020, 12:22 AM

Cool badges Andy. Wonder how they would work on a 67-68 gauge cluster in the choke delete position? Maybe ?

I have a couple of old cluster I give it a look see and post pictures of how it looks.

**special-K** · 12-20-2020, 10:16 AM

That was my first thought on these

Here you go. Not all that pretty of a picture though.
The first picture has the collar under the badge the other 2 don't.

**special-K** · 12-21-2020, 06:50 AM

Just a tad too small I guess.

That's what I thought to. Those dang Chicklets are multipling!
Picked up some mirror sensors and a couple more mirrors to boot.

You could make a buncha keychains. Cut out some ''teardrop'' shapes from plexiglas, epoxy the chicklet to the wide end and a 1/8th hole in the small end for a split wire keyring. I'd pay $5 for one. [If I had any money...]

Andy4639 · 12-22-2020, 02:42 PM

Now that's a idea...I had thought just drill a small hole in it and use.

Andy4639 · 12-22-2020, 05:43 PM

Here is what I did. I cleaned them good and got all the old glue off of them. Then I re glued them together. Drilled the hole. Done!

Redneck Rydes · 12-22-2020, 11:23 PM

Great idea,I've got about 50 new ones left,gonna make 25 key chains for all the kin folk for x-mas,awsome idea!

**Ol Blue K20** · 12-23-2020, 06:18 AM

That is a cool idea. It looks pretty cool.

I plan on adding those badges to the interior of a few of my g.m. vehicles.
Cutting the line below the G.M. out to house a USB port, Hiding the phone charging port in plan sight.

Post up some pictures when you do please.

**Ironhorse** · 12-24-2020, 04:09 PM

Another thought Andy, maybe cutt a small square backing piece from some grained plastic from a broken dash bezel. Smooth and trim the edges, maybe slight bevel? Affix the chiclet to it and then use 3m adhesive tape to place on the dash?

Like the key chain idea also.

**'68OrangeSunshine** · 12-31-2020, 10:41 PM

Hey Andy,
Thanks for the Chicklets.
Happy New Year!
