Porsche Emblem 911 LeMans 962 Badge - HELP!

[porschecab]

Anyone know anything about these? Seen them? Real? Just bought this based on it being the real thing (so he said) - but not sure - just way, way cool!

[BoxsterGT]

Isn't that the Dauer 962?

there is someone making custom porsche crest badges in different color variations.
your 962 lemans look like one of these.
it is definately not a factory badge, however it is beautiful!

[speed964]

does anyone know where to get one?

You mean "real" as in a genuine Porsche factory badge which the company used on a 962?

As the others said, it looks like a "real" Dauer 962 emblem. A purpose-built street car based on the 962 built by Dauer. Excellence did a write-up of one years back--pretty cool car.

I am pretty certain that is what you have--as I have never known Porsche to use anything but their official crest (once they had it) or a decal of the same on their race cars. nice badge nonetheless

Looks like the Dauer badge like others have said. Since they only built a handful of these cars, non for sale in the US, I couldn't speak to it being genuine or not.

[RRico]

all the factory 956 / 962's have a decal crest badge like the early race cars.
also a few friends of mine own og 962's.
Stay on your cloud, its a great piece.

What would YOU pay for one of these? I was sold as it being real, but no part no. on the back. What would you pay for a nice faker? Trying to determine the REAL value of this.

With each one he stamps out on E-Bay, I would imagine the price would decrease a little every auction:

Those appear to be applied after-the-fact by the graphics designer. If applied by the "factory", they wouldn't be in 3 different positions.

Nonetheless, the "962 Lemans" badge is not Porsche.

Current Porsche museum car....

[NineOhOne]

Nice, but I'm still betting the bodies left the factory bare, and decals/emblems were placed by a designer.

[nesslar]

The Dauer badges were made for the street cars, not the "Porsche" race cars....

[porschecab]

I think the 962 badge looks great on this car!
