Just cleaned and touched up the paint on my "Morris Cooper" badge off the bonnet.

Just wondering is there a way of telling if it's an original or a reproduction one?

I know with the MK1 badge the bull put on a little extra weight when it was made as a repro ... it looks just a little bit fat..

Thin Bull
Looks like an original one to me ..

That is unless they were making good repro ones
