Growing up in the 70’s I have memory’s of an MGB and an original TF in my Street with octagonal GB badge in the same style as the chrome badge.
Can anyone else remember these?

Well I think mg would have had something to say about someone producing octagan badges simular to there's or didn't they bother with that type of thing back then?
No what yer mean...you had me thinking for a minute if I had seen one maybe a octagan badge with mg in it and followed by bgt might trick a child's mind

... shouldn't be a big deal to have a sticker cut based on such a sketch - domed (3 dimensional) is a little more effort but doable for sure.

Looks better in real life...
