Medallions vs Darrin script
« on: July 12, 2017, 03:21:06 PM »
I just read an overview of the first production Darrin. It stated that the early Darrins had Darrin script on the front fenders and no script on the trunk, only a medallion. The photos of the restored car bear this out. My question: is there any documentation as to how many cars came that way. Mine is number three. So before I get all excited about medalions and script, I would like to know the definitive answer if there is one. It may not matter either way as I am not planning a 100% show car but I have the opportunity to get it right with your help.Thanks, Steve

The judging standards were written by our Chief Judge Char Dayton.
There is no mention of a script on the front of the car.
