Default Need help with Escort mk 1 Badges

Hi all iam a newbie here need some advise on the mk 1 badges for a relative overseas all i know is that he has a mk 1 escort i think it might be the mexico 1100 or 1300 GT.

Hes rebuilding it and needs the F O R D Badges the Escort running writting and the GT Badge.One thing iam not sure is that the separated F O R D letters would be the same size as the early cortina td tc models not sure if they would be either bigger or smaller.The running writting Escort word i seen a round also the size not sure if it changed in size with later models.As for the GT badge i know this is going to be the hardest to find cause the where rare and not many come out.

I have been to ebay and they have some there also wrecking yards said to come in and have a look around,but want to make sure iam getting the right one for him.

Can some one let me know where there's a good wrecking yard in Sydney or if some one has spare badges let me know on here or pm me with prices.

Items needed

1 X GT badge Escort mk 1
2 X sets F O R D lettering for boot and bonnet
1 X Escort running writting badge

Regards

Johnnny

If it is the "1300GT" badge that you are looking for, I have one I may be persuaded to part with

I also have one of the "GT" rectangular badges

and

I have a set of the "F O R D" letters
