Title: Ghia Badges
Post by Leeky on Dec 29th, 2006, 2:49pm
Howdy

im looking for 3 of the small metal ghia badges that would be usually stuck on the side of most fords (usually just above or below the side wing repeaters)

Dont mind if they come from a Scorpio, mondeo, fiesta or whatever. As long as they match and are in good condition :)

Cheers
Lee

You'll be unlikely to get them here, because these are not fitted to the new shape Scorpio's.

You need to go onto the Ford Granada Site.  ;)

unless you look below the ash tray the chromed Ghia badge stuck on the centre console, on the ghia model. It will say Ultima on that model.

I've re read my reply and I think I made the point. But to simplify it for you Sp, if the Scorpio model is a Ghia, the chromed ghia badge is on the centre console underneath the ash tray. If its an ultima model, the Ultima badge is on the centre consul underneath the ash tray...are you still keeping up ? So if he wants some Ghia badges, find a Ghia Scorpio P reg onwards, as some early ones didn't have these fitted, and he will get the badges he's after. Unlike the advice you gave that only Mk3 granadas had these fitted.
Now I know its alot to take it spannerd, so back to your colouring books for a rest.

following on ....... I've posted some pictures to help explain where to find the badges, according to microgirl thingy, 1997 models onwards had these fitted.

for ghia badge example

for Ultima example

these are from both my cars, 1997 Ghia, 1998 Ultima. Can I make it any clearer spannerd?  }{ }{ }{

Or, just a thought, if your down your local scrappy i'm sure they must be drowned in old ghia spec'd fiestas, escorts, sierras, mondy's etc which should have ghia badges on them  :)

Thanks for the advice guys.

Bertie - thanks for the pic, mine has the badge where yours is but mine isnt like yours. Mine is enamel, no chrome......this because mine is a late ghia x?

Anyways i went to ford and ordered the badges :) £12...not too bad. Just wanted to put one above each front wing repeater to replace the god aweful TD badges  ;D

Yes I reckon you have a newer style badge as mine is a '97 model. Glad you got sorted.

There are 2 Ghias in my local scrappy all had the badges fitted, since removed,  so i thought if you got the badges from them, then they should be in as new condition since being inside the car.
