Group,
The Sunbeam Talbot MK III had a small badge on the lower front
fender behind the wheel which was a bit larger overall and contained what
looks like the enamel hubcap badge in the centre and the words "Rootes
Group" above it. The badge is almost flat across the top and "U" shaped
overall.
Regards,
Bob
