Anyone care to guess what it's from?

Maybe a vacuum cleaner ?

A little car from the 50's ? Foreign ?

Some tool, appliance ?

and the winner is MJD! Yes, it's actually from a 1960's era canister vacuum cleaner. I took the badge off the thing probably in 1977....have had it ever since. I actually won't use it as a badge, but do think it's cool.

Dang !!! I think you should use it as an emblem, festivas suck up the road like a vacuum.

:p

I knew I had seen that thing back in the 1950's when Mom ran the vacuum in her house and beauty shop !
LOL
I guess I been around long enough to see all sorts of emblems, old cloth vacuum cleaners, stuff like that.
That is a cool emblem, would be neat to create something similar , but isn't the Festiva considered a "sub-compact" actually ? Just guessing.
I love looking at old cars and photos too, muscle cars not being saved, like the rotting muscle car site, and the

site that is showing all sorts of years, etc. Maybe you guys might like ?
Wife tells me I can't save them all -
