P.S Can a moderator rename the thread to Marc Veenhuis collection so I may send the guy a link. I really think its a fantastic trip down automotive history lane.
P.S. Tim - you should do a bit on this guy. He really fits the GRM mold!

I've been talking to Marc over email, I asked him what the DB logo was for. He sent me a picture of his Renault wall.
Mods, please change the title... and Tim please have a bit on this guy in the mag. I can send you his info, I am nothing short of amazed.

DB has been solved...
From Marc:
Ah, now I know, this is Deutsch-Bonnet. A French car firm what built sportscars with (underpowered) Citroën engines, Rene Bonnet and Charles Deutsch.
<- learned something new today, never heard of Deutsch-Bonnet. Maybe cuz its French.

Up... so anyone find any emblems to send to this dude? I have a few but nothing cool, I wouldn't mind grabbing them and sending a care package from all of us here.

My dad has this old Jeep badge similar to the picture. Did anyone see it in Marc's pictures? I should see if my dad will let it go...

I have a couple of old Datsun Stanza logos from Oz that I could part with. I bought them when I had my 78 Datsun 510 last year,and now the car is gone,but I still have these Aussie badges.
If someone is sending a collection to him let me know,and I will mail you the ones I have.

I sent the gent my Spyder badges. Cost me $1.24 to send in an envelope. It was worth it, its nice to change someone's day. If you wish to send the gent some badges his email is carnut8 (at) hetnet (dot) nl
I am still willing to collect all the badges and send them with regards from GRM. PM me if anyone is interested.

Maybe I'll pull the emblems off this Datsun coupe rotting in a field next to my office.
