How about some bottle openers to rivet onto our trucks.

[the colonel]

good call chris !    I can ask the foundry!  Right now, use a bottle opener!  LOL

[cellulararrest]

I just say so because the D-90 source has thrown the idea around a bunch, but it still hasn't happened.

I think it would be a fun addition

[the colonel]

i would need to check on that!  They are doing the plates now>  Thats real!   The opener would I beleive to be a harder metal.  I will definately ask!   The idea for the plate came from my avatar! LOL !

Count me in for one for my IIa Hybrid.

The foundrys design is like this I guess!  This is what they make the plate from.

OK, Got the tour of the foundry that is producing our auto badges. Here is the final design and the resin casting of the plate.   Final cost will be $50.00 with direct shipping to you for $6.00 more. These will be a limited run item. The set up fee was reduced for us by Hank. He did the best he could on cost of producing the product.

Hank was good enough to include our design on his website and added a link directing traffic to our site!   He is working on the bottle opener and key chains as well.  both done in the Auto Badge design.
Take a look at this guys work!
