Default Anagrams from Falcon badges

The BA onwards badges are seperable, and you can put them in any order you like. Seen a few falcons where they've switched the letters around to personalize things a bit. Seen an Alan, Alco, XR6 BRO,

Anyone know what funky/funny combinations can be made from mixing and matching Falcon badges. Do Falcon/Fairmont/Fairlane/Territory/Ghia/Turbo all have the same font?

When I had my AU, nicknamed "the tractor", I wanted to get the letters made up to say "TRACTOR". But I didn't.

My brain also hurts. Possibly the result of a paddlin'
