The Origin of a Logo

• 

Surely we all know where André Citroën got the idea for an emblem of his automobiles… he started his career by building gear wheels and the twin chevrons (groenewoud-citroen.nl) of the Citroën emblem represent the teeth of those gears. But few of us have probably seen what the "Double Chevron" really looks like in the flesh so to speak. Now Craig Little gives us that opportunity when he took these shots while re-assembling the double helical drive of the differential of his 1923 B2 Torpedo Deluxe. It was also a last chance as the diff is now back together with new bearings and seals and not due to come apart for another 85 years. Maybe even 500. It is certainly built to take it.
