    I have the bracket, looking for the plastic logo inlay.

    Thanks!

    69 and 70 are different. 70 had a trishield plastic and a Limited emblem that was different,
    all 70 big cars took the trishield including the Electra, except the Electra "Limited" I have the trishield plactic emblem NOS in the box, but do not have the rubber-plastic black and gray frame. Email me if interested.
    The emblem is at the point on the bumper and is the first thing get cracked.

    Quick question, how do you tell if you have the "Limited" model? Is it simply the split bench seat? I have no limited emblems on my car, but it does have the center armrest.

    Adam, once you narrow down which version you're looking for, can you point to a photo online somewhere? I have a few of the emblems and plastic surrounds in an old box of NOS and lightly used stuff, maybe I have one for you.

    If Adam is already taken care of I'd like to be next in line. Need '70 LeSabre. I thought someone in the BCA was selling these but I don't see an ad anymore.

    I will just take a picture of the cracked original I have when I get home.

    That'll be a big help...in the meantime I'll try to find that box of goodies.

    No prob, Brian. I'll keep you in mind too.

    Here is a picture of the broken emblem I have...appears to just be a plain 70? Is there another piece I'm missing?

    You are missing the outer cover for the metal support, it is a rubber-plastic piece that is black and gray color and has the cut-out for the tri shield emblem

    Bill is right on. The metal piece on the left once wore a plastic surround.

    If someone can post a photo of the part as installed it would be a huge help. I haven't gone digging yet, by the way.

    This is the 70 emblem...almost impossible to find.

    I have a 69 emblem if anyone needs one. They are much easier to find.

    Thanks for the photos, guys. Unfortunately that item is something I do not have.
