Tech- Make your own hood ornament, show us yours

Just messing around tonight with the jalopy tow truck and mounted the new radiator cap-hood ornament that I have been wanting to do for awhile. The damn thing even works, but that hot green water sure tastes bad.

 

Hahaha, I wish I had a picture of Coop's car, that has the Devil with a huge erection, as a hood ornament.

 

Here is one I saw at Texas Good guys Show. It was Doc's racing turtle on his 33 Ford. Someone on the HAMB made it but can't remember who.

 

That turtle rocks!

 

Probably the guy that does the one off shull shift knobs. Don't remember the name either.

 

That turtle is wicked, anyone know if that guy has a business doing that or takes custom orders?

 

The turtle looks like chromedRat's handiwork. I don't have his website handy, but you can get from his HAMB profile.

 

That turtle kicks ***.

 

Here's my V-8 ornament on my Roadster.

That's the guy I was thinking of.

 

ChromedRat did the turtle.

His website is www.evil1customs.com/skull.

He does custom work. That turtle & my Hillbilly can be seen on his "custom" page.

This old girl was off a 34 plymouth and somewhere along the way she lost her wings.
So I felt obligated to help her spread her wings again.With a slight upgrade.

 

His **** so kicks ***!!

 

heres mine...still needs a lot of 'finessin' before being plated...started out as a bombsite deal but I had some extra rod and some washers ...viola! Leaned it back about the same rake as the windshield visor....

 

Hello...My Ornament..Red Ram (eyes light up RED) 241 Red Ram Hemi in my 1935
Duane...

 

Here's a pic of one I made for my 55 Safari.Carved out of pine,birch,and red oak.I have since mounted it on the roof and gone back to my lighted Indian.The next one will be made of Lucite.

 

Here's what I'm using on my '29 RPU. The Cobra emblem goes with the installed 289 HiPo and I found the figurehead in an antique store, something out of the '20's I would guess.

 

You mean this one?

 

A tip for the youngsters here...do not have that cap on your radiator when going to pick up a girl on the first day if she still lives at home with Mom and Dad! Something like taking a Nash on the first date in the late 40s, 50s, and 60s...the laydown front seat thing, ya know!

There is a cl***ic bronze sculpture from the golden age of ****** sculpture showing a flapper riding a giant phallus in a pose similar to this one with her skirt blown up exposing her garters and stockings VERY LIKE the 40s-50s Minotti Camshaft logo!

 

Not mine, but as long as we're posting naughty mascots...



Maybe she should hook up with Coop's mascot.

Spotted at the Early Ford V-8 meet in Batavia, NY, last year.

That's awesome!

 

Always wanted one of those,last one I saw forsale sold for $$$$$

 

You guys are creative!
Much better than the deer I had on my 78 T-bird!

 

This thread is awesome! BTTT!

 

Naughty ornaments? There goes our "nice guy" reputation!

 

Here's mine for my '29 pickup. The Cobra emblem matches the 289 HiPo I'm running. I found the "speedy lady" mounted on a wood base in an antique store. Probably came off some '20 car but don't know which one. Combined it with an old '28 radiator cap and away we go.

 

Those two should get together and have a baby ornament.

 

Didn't you already post this?

 

Josh, aka chromedrat, did indeed do my racing turtle mascot. He also made a matching shift knob of the turtles head. He's a very talented young man, and he welcomes custom work. He is a college student and his family owns a foundry. He can make anything that you can dream up. I highly recommend him.

Doc.

 

Hahaha that is awesome
