Wish I had one of the Bowditch Dealer Emblems for my car 5S275 which was sold by Bowditch Ford.

Nice to have and great wall art but I can't imagine junking up a GT350 with a dealers advertising regardless if the original selling dealer or not. But that is just me . I know others think differently.

Bo,
  Yes, I am on the warpath for one too. My 66, SFM6S1342, was probably the last Shelby sold by Bowditch (or else the highest serial number number sold). I'd run hot or cold about installing one, as there are no holes in the original taillight panel for one. But would still be cool to have. Now that I know what one looks like and have a good photo, it should be easier to show folks what I'm looking for. I'll let you know if I scare up more than one....

The Original Bowditch Dealer Emblem, did it have pins on the backside or was it glued on the back of 5S296.
Looked at old pictures of my car and there are no holes drilled. Bought the car in Feb.1988.
Thanks, Texas Swede

Hey Bo -

hope all is good with you - the Bowditch Emblem has pins  - similar to the GT 350 emblem

Thanks Dave, I am fine, what about you. You solved the problem, my car didn't come with the Bowditch Dealer Emblem. Now I am going to watch my 14-year-old grandson in Sweden placing ice hockey in Stockholm. Can watch in Swedish Hockey TV.
Again, thanks, Texas Swede
