I've got two peculiar holes at the rear

Post by nicktennear »

I've got a missing badge above the right side camping badge on my 83 Devon, Volkswagen on the left, holes are about six inches apart. Would it have been a Devon Conversion badge? I've not seen a Devon with more than the two badges I have. Wonder if it had a custom name badge at some point in its past.

is it the original tailgate, small lock, or has it been swapped for a later one with the bigger diameter lock, they had the holes in for the model badge, Transporter or Caravelle

I've got a little one that sticks out. 😕 I've now seen pressed metal Devon badges that apparently went on in the early eighties, matches up. I bet this one's got binned or put on eBay after it was resprayed.

Any chance of a look? I've got a Devon Conversion badge in black but it's not like the pressed metal ones.
