    I remember thinking the heraldry badge on my Dad's old Monte Carlo was really cool, when I was a kid. Looking back, it is pretty badass.

    @UDMan: That's not important right now, what matters is I'm back, but only at weekends, where the Murilee roam free.

    And very, total, immaculate congrats for a worship-worthy showing at LeMons! I doff my traditional English street-urchin cloth cap at you.

    Ah, that wonderful malaise era where every US car tried to exude class by heraldry, coins, wreaths, shields, and all the other paraphernalia of fake tradition and pseudo-exclusivity. Here's a Mercury Marquis badge from the '70s - it's not just a Mercury, it's a "Lincoln Mercury Division"car!

    @Murilee Martin: Look at that face, those nine-tenths-closed eyes, that drooly grin! Dude's about seven seconds away from dropping the glass and falling face first onto the carpet. And when he does, the guy on the right, who is anticipating all this fun, is going to laugh his ass off.

    I've nabbed a total of two emblems from the local junkyard. The Prospector emblem came off a mid-'70s Dodge Ram van, and the Sapporo emblem came off the hood of an '83 Plymouth Sapporo.

    This is the first thing I think of whenever anyone mentions Sapporo. God, I want that emblem. I've never even HEARD of a plymouth sapporo, or seen one. They must be extinct.
    Oh, hey-- it's a Mitsubishi Galant. I actually would kinda like one. I'd throw that Plymouth badging away and put the triple diamond badge on it, though.
