1967 Plymouth Sport Fury (via Drew Makepeace)

Consider this: this badge was designed by hand. It would have been transferred from a drawing to a mold by a toolmaker, by hand. After each badge was mass-produced, in all likelyhood in a factory entirely owned by Chrysler, it would have been painted and polished by hand. Each badge would be applied to each car by hand and not by some double-sided tape but by actual holes in the panel.

They really don’t make them like they used to.
