Hi everyone... Would anyone know where I could get (or get replicas made up) of the original Diamond Reo badges??

My boyfriend has just got himself a 1972 Diamond Reo from his old man. She's been re-sprayed and we are just putting the final touches on her ready for work.

The old badges we've got unfortunately have a couple of letters missing and I was hoping to get some replacements as a suprise for my fella :)

Does anyone know where/how I can complete my mission? lol

Cheers,

Cher

I think you'll find it might be easier to source original badges. Don't want to speak out of turn but there's a few guys on here who will be able to help for sure - Melonreo springs to mind.

I can run a wanted ad in my old truck mag if you have no luck.

HI CHER
are they the words on the sides of the fiber glass bonnet , and if so is it a long or short bonnet, or is it an diamond shape emblem,, there is usually 1 on each side of the bonnet and 1 on top of the grille out the front

Hi Pat... It's the words on the side of the bonnet I'm looking for. It has a short bonnet, same body shape as the White 4000. We have the original diamond shape badge on the front and it's in not bad nick.

hi Cher . the badges that you are looking for do pop up on ebay from time to time, be patient they will pop up everywere after you find a set. (look on ebay . com). in USA they pop up, some times you will only get one side ,but it is a start and most of the yanks will post stuff over here it no big drama. i have bought a couple of the metal DIAMOND T word badges on the top of the doors like that and it all went OK..
