These were in my toolbox stolen along with $7000 worth of tools from the Ormeau area a while back, the Northern territory one wouldnt be too common down here I wouldnt think so if anyone has seen them or bought them let me know please.

Sorry to hear of your loss - no doubt frustrating as these things invariably are. Had a house break in and stuff stolen from a car a couple of times and it is a genuine downer.

Anyway, this may or may not be useful but in the likely event that your badges are never seen again, you can at least get a replacement for the LROCA badge. The Sydney owners club has had that badge remade - identical to the one in your photo - and sell them for $45. The NT badge is a classic and I am not aware of anyone selling them - I would probably have bought one for myself if I did know (although now I would be definitely wondering where it came from and checking it over very carefully against your photo).

Hope you have some luck with the tools etc and ditto with the badges.

.... you can at least get a replacement for the LROCA badge. The Sydney owners club has had that badge remade - identical to the one in your photo - and sell them for $45. ....Not actually re-made, just new batches those badges have always been made for the LROCS and then on-sold to other clubs.

'Re-made' - 're-ordered' - "re-made to meet a re-order", who cares, I was just told that they were out of stock and a new batch was being made before I bought mine............

I suppose the original point was that you can at least get a replacement from LROCS if you don't get the stolen one back.

Now back to the teapot and the thesaurus to check the subtle difference between useful and pedantic............

'Re-made' - 're-ordered' - "re-made to meet a re-order", who cares, , not reproductions or re-made, they are originals off the original die!

Thanks for the replies, I''ll get a new owners club badge now I know where to get it from.
The NT one is the one i miss, was given to my dad (maitland lroc) in 75 by a member he visited up there during an around oz trip in his brand new series 3, i was born halfway through that trip over in perth.
I havent seen another like it.
