I remember a few years ago Larry Robertson let someone borrow the original mold that they used at The John Wood Company (Bennett) where he worked. Well they decided to come up with this story that they lost it, yeah right. Anyone know of its whereabouts?

That's not quite right Tim, but the die was scrapped when his fabricator went bankrupt. Larry was not able to get it.
He and I talked about me making a new one but GPH came out with the plastic so I backed out.

Whoever is molding them now makes a poor copy of them. I have 4 of them here and the pins are not even close to lining up with the holes on the doors. They were bought through Vics66 and I've had better luck with the plastic ones from GPH, but would rather have cast emblems.

You should make some Ron.
