Hi I recently aquired a large lot of nos Van Nuys plant emblems from a former employee. In this lot Is found some emblems I have never seen on or in a Thirdgen before nor have I seen ever. Can anyone shine a light on these emblems and what or where they might have been on?
I have a set of bird emblems for the b-pillar that are chrome lined with a black bird with red surrounding. Then 1 emblem that's chrome with black bird and blue surrounding. Then the same with grey surrounding. Then I have some tiny GTA emblems that are Identical to the nose emblem just 1/4 of it's size. I have been an enthusiast and owner for the last 18 years and these are the first I have seen Like this. I have owned 2 GTA's and have never seen the little emblem before.

 

My GTA has none that small but I want one!

 

Yeah, those are pretty darned cool.

 

The small one looks like the 87 GTA steering wheel emblem.

The 84 15th Anniversary Trans Am had blue emblems, but not like the one pictured. I assume they're the same size and shape as the GTA emblems? They almost look more like the 4th gen bird outline than the 3rd, but then the GTA sail panel emblems are a bit distorted too.

 

Thanks for the info on the tiny GTA emblem. More knowledge for my noggin. Lol.
When held next to the GTA bird it's identical in every way. Thickness size shape and design. When I get home I'll post a picture of one of the colored ones next to a GTA one.

 

For some reason it's sticking in my head that the Recaro T/A's had GTA style sail panel bird emblems, but I'm not having much luck refreshing my memory.

 

Maybe the bandit editions?

 

You are correct, the small ones are 87 steering wheel emblems

 

Sorry for cell phone pics
