Porsche bonnet badges

Post by hot66 »

What year did the Porsche bonnet badge change from the earlier 'solid' 'orange' bar type to the later 'red' type ?

Sometime late in '73 - possibly coinciding with the start of the '74 model year.

thanks Andy :)

So I assume my 2.4S, built Jan '73 , would have had the solid orange bar type of badge.
