    At least it is straight. The one pictured isn’t mine. Hopefully a badge will turn up.

    I believe HarryMCN is picturing a '35 emblem while Jack356 is exhibiting a '34 emblem.  I'm looking for an ornament base like the one Jack356 has pictured.  I already have the emblem and bird - just need the base. Thanks

    The '34 Hudson (non-Terraplane) ornament base looks like this.

    You can have them restored if your emblem is straight and not marked up.  The major expense with having this done is the thin strip of metal that separates the colors.  If this is damaged is gets expensive.  I am having a 1927 Essex emblem done at the moment.  This may be faster than finding an emblem of good quality.

    Where are you having it restored?

    There is a lady, Karla Maxwell who restores them. She does an excellent job. You should be able to Google her and find her. In California I think, or at least out west somewhere.
