G'day Liam, welcome to the forum. I've just moved to Melbourne from Perth so sorry I can't meet up with you to discuss further if you were interested in doing so.

On the badge front, another option might be to get in touch with the Military Branch of the Vintage Car Club over in Perth. Those guys often source unit markings etc for their vehicles so they might be able to point you in the right direction for a 2/3 emblem or 10.

Would love to hear about some of your tours with Weary etc. I walk passed the statue of Weary in the Botanical Gardens in Melbourne twice a day to and from work. Always make sure I give him a nod. I'll be posting a pic of the statue here in the next few weeks as I am photographing the Shrine and surrounds.
