I am lucky enough to be the keeper of one of the three surviving Cresta N Types (Chassis NA 0934, regn MG 4750). All that is missing from my rebuild is a Cresta Motors badge. These wer octagonal, green enamel and said "Cresta Motor Company, Broadwater Road, Worthing" and measure about 2" across or a bit less. I've not seen one in the flesh but I have a photo from one of the other survivors.
Does anyone know where I can find one? Cresta were not only agents for MG but also Humber and Hillman amongst others during the mid-'30s.

There is a stall at Beaulieu Autojumble every year, in the row to the right-hand side at the top of Red field, who sells a selection of such plates. I'll try to figure out his name by elimination from my programme, but maybe some else knows who I mean.

Bob,
I am the keeper of a Cresta supplied PB and would also like a dashboard plate.
You say you have a picture of one could you post it on the site so that I know what I am looking for, and perhaps somebody may see it and realise they have one.
It would also help me find one to offer the autojumblers a photo may help, of course it may be that I find 2 in which case I will send you one!!

Slightly off topic, but in case anyone needs one, I have an original badge from Brigden's (of Brighton). I'd be willing to send a scan of the badge in return for someone silk screening a reproduction.
Cheers,
