Good read indeed, I read through all the comments too. It seems there is a little spat between the designers saying who really designed it at Lippencot & Marguilies.

Every make should have & use an easily distinguishable emblem such as this...to many new models you cannot tell what you are looking at including some Chrysler products.
Wonder whatever became of the Dodge tri-star.

Info on the "fratzog" or "Dodge Delta". They say it was a 3 pointed star, but why 3? Figure it was for Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth? Who knows...
