I can very vaugely remember my uncle having an old straight 8 ford (at least I think it was a ford) The badges ping memories of that car. But very shakey to say the least...... Cheers.

They're not ford badges as far as I know.

Last time I saw one it was on a Daimler Benz.

It won't have been a Ford, they have never made a straight 8.

For this reason I think the badges aren't from a Ford, they always have a V with the 8. I don't know what the badges are from, but I would expect it is something from the 1930s
