Eric,
Unfortunately these badges are extremely rare.
They only appeared on the large (21,000, 25,000 lbs) V8 trucks from 1958 to 62. There were maybe 6 or 700 of these trucks made. (This is an extremely rough guess on my part as there are no factory figures available)
I have been on the hunt for these for many years.
The set I have at the moment are on loan to me from a fellow Dodge owner how lives 2500 mls away. I hope to brush up on my old foundry skills and try and cast some copies. If they work out I should be able to send you some.
Tony
PS. this will be a while as I have a couple of other projects on the go.
