I dunno, you'd think they'd stick ONE somewhere! Unless you count the Owner's Manual!

I think a lot of cars used to be this way. I don't think Dad's old '80 Monte had a bowtie, nor did my old '79 Caprice. They were kinda superceeded by their own specialty marque badging.

I do have nine of these though.

my 76 toro does not even say Oldsmobile on the outside anywhere

I am not sure but I have a few. I put 4 into my spoked wheel covers and have them on the nose, trunk key cover, rear quarters etc , but my floor mats have Tweety Bird which came with the car. I want to get rid of them but the girlfriend likes them. Would like to find floor mats with the Rocket on them. Anybody know who carries them?

I have 6. 4 on the wheel caps, 1 on the horn and 1 on the header panel. Mine only says "Oldsmobile" on the dash.

67 Cutlass

I think I have 10. 1 on each wheel center cap, 1 on each fender, 1 on each inner door panel, 1 on steering wheel, 1 on dashboard emblem.

Does the big rocket hood ornament count? No rocket logo's on mine, it's a 55. I have 3 globes, one on hood,trunk,center of horn ring.

FATRATMATT

As big as your hood ornament is it should count as 2.

I have 5 on the 64 center caps and key chain.On the 70 I have 9,10 if you count the one on the inspection plate but no one can see that one.
5 on the center caps

None on my 64, bunch of the F-85 emblems though. If I put the SSIII's on there will be 4

Doug69Cutlass

Well I didn't have anything else to do so I had to run out in the garage and count my rockets. I have 9 on my 69 Custlass S. One on each SSIII wheel (4), one on each rear quarter marker light (2), one on the stearing wheel (1), one on the center shifter council (1), and one on the emissions decal on the radiator (1). Most of the other emblems on the car are the "S" for sport.

I haven't checked, but I think I only have one on my 70 442. The horn button. The wheels are from an 87 and have the 442 caps on them, so none there.

My '85 doesn't have any rockets at all...well until I bought a couple and stuck them on the sail panels after getting my sim conv top replaced. Otherwise it just has the "Oldsmobile" lettering and that's it! They were pretty unique cars.

Great pics of your cars BTW...wicked nice! My initials are JPA as well...lol...caught my eye when I was looking on the Hemmings site.

The 57 has two, one on each front fender
