wow, very nice, but in a classic Jaguar Saloon, I feel the growler emblem would be better than the leaper emblem.

That does look nice,, will have to get some black/gold growlers made in the same style as the original S/420 horn button.


Of course the good thing is you can put this on any cat with a Moto-Lita wheel


I did one with a chrome growler for a customer with an XK150 that I thought looked well.


Cheers, Saul

hi Saul,
mine was made by Momo. In 1990 I bought a Momo "Olympic" leather steering wheel for my XJ and it came with two horn-push emblems, a leaper and a growler. (actually it came with three, the third is a metal "Momo" logo emblem in Ferrari yellow, useless). I used the leaper emblem in the XJ and the growler in the S type. Just my opinion but the grower looks better in gold. However the wood background is fabulous.
