Old Car badge - can anyone identify it ?

[CBRDEAN0]

As title - i'm trying to identify the car badge in the pic

[Rebelrc]

Maybe Humber

[Rebelrc]

i think actualy its Hillman

[DCM]

Hillman I believe, a quick check on google images would confirm that.

[DCM]

After looking, I have no idea what badge it is

[JWall3]

my reliable source informs me that is a humber badge and the "h" is the way it is because there is something originating from around the humber - i know the rootes group factory was around there but thats it.

Its not a hillman badge - we own a hillman imp

Humber was taken over by The Rootes Group during the 1930s.

That's the point i'm at currently.

Can't seem to find the image anywhere to get a match.

Great site - will have a look through - cheers

looked through all 178 pages, it isnt on

[tymill]

wow - this is a real mystery... interesting!

I wonder if it might be from something other than a car? Tractor perhaps?

Cheers - saved me some time.

It might be a HINO lorry badge

[purpletimbo]

H looks wrong

[Spoolio]

Got me stumped! It's not a Hudson badge. I've checked the old Holden badges, it's not one of them either. The Humber Snipe badge is sort of in the same area ie, delta-wing design but it's a flattened V so it's the other way round to yours and it'sgot Humber in it. Wonder if it's off a converted car eg, a Sunbeam Alpine Harrier the hatchback version of the Alpine sports car?

[tymill]

perhaps an old Hindustan motors badge?

The only logo I can find with a crossed "H" like that is Austin Healey - but alas that seems to always be in script. Could it be a variation though?

[CBRDEAN0]

Thanks for looking guys - gona keep trying.

It looks oriental style - the cross bar on the H looks a little like a roof in shape.

I maybe wrong but I think it`s from the well known Hotpoint 2 Litre Turbo Injection Twin Tub GTI
