My 77 Royale has three chrome "badges" which say COOPER YUKON. One on each side below the side view mirrors and another in the back above the license plate.
Just wondering if there is any information out there on this badge. The badges are screwed into the body, not glued. I have only found one posting on the net with them associated with GMCs.
Anyone have any guesses or information I would love to hear about it. Perhaps it was the dealership that sold it originally?

Joe Cooper Ford has dealerships in Yukon, OK; Shawnee, OK; and Midwest City, OK (my dealership). I'd like to see a photo (offline) of the "badges" in question. I think they might be more likely to have come from the GMC (and maybe Olds) dealership named Jackie Cooper (Joe Cooper's father) that was in Yukon, OK many years ago. I arrived in the OKC area from Germany back in 1971 and couldn't even begin to think about buying a GMC back when they were new on my ~ $5,000 a year US Air Force captain's pay!
