The new team in the Parts Department is getting going.  One of the projects we are looking at are the round brass badges that go on the Timing Chaincase Cover on all Marston-designed Sunbeams.  Up to 1931 one badge, with a blank roundel in the middle, went on all models.  From 1931 onwards the roundel carries the model name, and there are a range of variants.  In addition, sometimes the badge was attached with rivets and sometimes with slotted screws.  Before we place any orders, some research is needed, and that requires information from members.

Please could you go and take a close-up photo of the badge on your machine, and then email it to global@marston-sunbeam.org?  Either as the file name or in the accompanying email, can you also please give your name and the year and model of the machine.  An example of what we are looking for is attached.
