So after waiting for a Griffin badge [which I have just received all thanks and respect to Steve De Vos] here are pics of my Griffin Badge "Alternative" !!!...
This is actually ... wait for it, a Vaxhaul Corsair , with a few minor modifications. About AUD$10 incl postage from UK via Ebay. I know many will cough at the sight of this but I reckon it looked allright. The original pic is below FYI.

looks very unique Earl, very elegant. i quite like it actually, but where does the Griffin badge come into it?
Steve this was just my interim badge because I had these lovely holes so I wanted to cover them up and hence did so on a whim... see the 'before' picture below. Your old Griffin will proudly go on as a replacement...

Steve the whole idea behind the griffin badge when Toyota put it on the car was their believe in driving away evil spirits (no pun intended). The griffin was designed to do this, however most people questioned why it was put on the front, or why it wasn't also put on the back of the car.
Earl it's a unique idea, glad to see it. Looks a little Vauxhall to me, but loosing the ring removes that notion.
