RadiatorEmblems: IMV / Yugoslavia

IMV / Yugoslavia

The firm " INDUSTRIJA MOTORNIH VOZIL " had assembled the German DKW light commercials since 1955.
1960 they introduced their own designed series of light commercials still using the same engine, front wheel drive principle and mechanicl units. Built as a van, truck minibus and ambulance the IMV 1000 was powered by the DKW 3-cylinder two stroke gasoline engine. Later they used an AUSTIN engine.
From 1975 on they offered also a MERDCEDES Diesel engine.
Production ceased in 1991.

This is not a prewar emblem, but it is worth to be mentioned as the emblem is enameled and very hard to find.

Size	9.0 x 6.0 cm
Year	1960 - 1970

Welcome

I started collecting radiator emblems in 1976. I remember this clearly because I had to give my first car to the local scrapyard. It was a still nice looking Volkswagen squareback. The scrapyard director was interested in my car and I was interested in the emblems of all cars in the field. So a deal was made. And I went home with a bucket full of emblems. Later I've been on swap meets all around the world. I started buying emblems on Ebay in 1999. From this time on prices became comparable for the first time. This made it possible for me to invent a five-star system to categorize emblems based on their rarity and value.This table is applicable for original emblems in a good but not perfect shape. Not for reproductions.

	A common pre-war emblem from a mass producer like Ford, Chevrolet, Chrysler etc. Value: 0$ - 50$
	Still a well known car but no high production quantities. Value: 50$ - 200$
	Here it starts with the highly collectible emblems. Value: 200$ - 500$
	A very rare and very desirable emblem. You have to look years to find one of these. Value: 500$ - 800$
	An ultra rare piece. Prices are sometimes 800$ and more.
