1971 GTX door medallion



I'll be damned if I know why they look like this

The bird and shield remind me of the Chrysler Imperial eagle.
But the doily looking ring?

The blue and red and silver 3 part circle reminds me of the Dodge 3 pointed C pillar badge, as the 120 degree separation are the same.


see what I mean? https://moparplus.com/exterior/bezels-medallions/
That 3 pointed symbol has a specific name, I posted it 5 years ago, but can't recall the word

the evolution of the Fiat badge


the first one, the nice brass parchment appearing one in the upper left? Was made by artist, painter, and publicist Giovanni Carpanetto (1863-1928), which included the company name Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino, and would also include the car chassis number, each logo having a unique identity.
