DynaMike ◊ 2012-04-24 15:58	Probably. In Europe it usually had the badge between star and license plate, except in Italy and Switzerland where 'square' plates were required. In that case the badge moved to the left. I guess the same applies for US cars. But I don't think there was a difference between 1957/58/59 models...
