Guys I have been trolling the net looking for jpeg images of the front badges for MK1 Mk2 Morris Cooper and also a JPEG of the front badge for an Austin Cooper. Does anyone have any of these?

Doug,
Nothing there for me, hopefully someone will have them or else I will have to pay to have someone draw them up for me.

Greg,

I've misunderstood what you are after. JPG is a graphic file format and de-facto standard for digital photos. I assumed you wanted a photo of each badge. Instead, are you talking about a black and white line drawing, along the lines of these for the BMW MINI?

Spot on Doug, I am after a graphic of the front badges so I can have them embroidered onto something. I know someone who is custom making car covers for minis. She is a retired seamstress and has copied the quality and style of the one I bought for my lotus. I originally asked her to make one for Paddy as there is nothing like it on the market, at least not that quality and soft so it won't scratch the paint. She is going to offer them in various colours and with an embroidered Mini bonnet badge on the front. There will also be an option to have a custom logo embroidered on the front. The lotus cover cost me just under $1000 (yes it has Lotus tax applied) but she is looking to price these at around $270 each with the embroidery done, which is ridiculously cheap. The fit and quality is awesome, so as soon as I can get some badging on them I will post up pics and details on here. The colours will be black, red, blue and green with various colours of piping on them. I recommended the badging to her. Thought it would make a nice finishing touch.

I will have them on my cars at Wakefield park for the next round of the ECMS for people to see. I have ordered a red one with silver piping and an Austin badge(if I can get a JPEG) for the red group C car, and a black one with silver piping for Paddy.

There will also be an option for custom colours but this will be a little more expensive (she said around $30 extra) as she won't be buying that colour in bulk.

These guys do car covers, very good quality and very well priced. I have them for all of my cars and they can custom make them and put whatever you want on them as far as badges go. Likely already have the badges ready to go.

This is what I am talking about. They fit like a condom, and are very top-end in quality

Just look awesome.

Take a photo of the badge and trace over it in "paint" and then print it out.
Depending on the embroiding machine, I had a photo of Garry Brazier's sprint car scanned by Embroid Me in Penrith and then they could Embroid it onto anything at any scale.

I may have to do this. Just not very good at computer stuff. Will have to find a computer savvy friend to do it.
