Default Fake AAC cap badge, now available for £39,699.00 only!

I must assume this is a massive typo?

Guess there's no Horsa included as the price has been adjusted to 36.99! Dar, and I wanted to be the first kid on my block to have a Horsa in their back yard!!!

Hi

I maintain an interest in old aircraft along with badges, etc. and read of part of a Horsa being turned into a small electric powered car, post war. Maybe this was one of Mr. Musk's father's schemes....

It was "rescued" and used to build a full-size example of the fuselage.

For £36.99 I'd want an original example!

They can be found cheaper than that with a bit of patience.

Indeed, they can be found an awful lot cheaper!
