              I think it has been replaced, looks very thin and the style of catch is not typical of Wurster

              regards

                    Hi Inmicus,

                    Nice Wurster GAB, but the catch is definately a replacement IMO. The closesups you show are actually from a Kriegs Destroyer badge, not the GAB.

                    If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

                            Pretty fine repair, but how strong? You gotta remember this is zinc and a small weld might not cut the mustard. Otherwise, it looks fabulous.
