I think that Fran Kress has that correct hood emblem just like 2127. The FIA's did not use one to my recallection, they went nude.

Actually, some FIA cars did and some didn't. As you can see in the pics I posted above of CSX2301, it had the white badges. The three other cars that raced did not:

CSX2345, car 142:



CSX2323, car 146:



CSX22260, car 148:




This link has lots of pics from the 1964 Targa Florio:

Some may have noticed the rectangle of plexiglass on the hood of car 146: that was added to provide some additional protection to the windshield from gravel thrown up from the rough Sicilian mountain roads.
