    Hi all,

    Got some vintage Badger Dual Quad air cleaners and curious about what other speed parts they made and when, as don't seem to find much on the web.

    I have has a set on my car for a number of years, before I knew what brand they were, afew people mentioned they might be Badgers, and just recently got a set os semi nos set with the original boxes, which match the ones on my car, also found a set almost identical other than the louver filler pattern is cross hatched vs a horizontal pattern.

    If anyone has some links or scans of old catalogs would be neat to see.

    They made all sorts of chrome dress-up stuff. I have a pair of '50s Pontiac valve cover breather caps somewhere. Badger plating is about Western Auto/Pep Boys merchandise quality.

    I have one of their products on my avatar and like you, I had difficulty learning more about the company as well. A few years ago I found a set of “Badger Spark Plug Covers” in nos condition. I have only seen these on two ther cars.

    Here is a picture of the box of that helps.

    A friend gave me a set of Badger spark plug covers about 15 years ago. Have only met one person who knew anything about them. I have them on the flatty in my roadster(avatar) Found a couple of pics of a display card containing chrome gas caps manufactured by Badger. Would be interested in knowing what era they made the spark plug covers and what other products they made.

    I have replacement gas & radiator caps by Badger that were made 1940s. The chrome hot rod stuff is from the mid - '50s.

    I have a set just like those ^^^ still in the box. I also had a set of used ones good for a 7 cylinder, but sold those (luckily I found a guy with a 7 cylinder).

    There were Badger pistons too but I'm not sure if they were from the same company.
