Lets see some cool Hood Ornaments

This was on a nice original car a friend got a few years ago.

Here's a few I've collected over the years, I shot a couple, and my father shot the rest. We both sorta dabble in photography. E-mail me if you want a LARGE jpeg of either one.

Peace

I also do metal sculpture. My forte is high heeled shoes in stainless and/or aluminum. I think this one might look good on a '60s era '46 Ford custom pickup truck I'm completing. I call this one "Bedroom Slipper". Note the chains and spurs.

 

This was on a Auburn boat tail speedster at show. Sweet car and sweet hood ornament.

 

Soon to be on my '34:

 

Even though this thread is old as dirt....see this thread for more hood ornaments:http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=216135&showall=1

 

The Poncho one I was told was a swap meet find for $25 NOS still in the BOX!! NOT a REPOP If so the is the find of the week!! The second is on a friends A which says it all!!

 

I wuvu too!

 

Sorry, I got dial up and computer illiterate, dont know how to post a pic of one I picked up, off a 50's edsel I think, a flying naked woman done by a famous art deco artist, who I also don't know.

 

From my wife's old 51. Notice her ...um... clever... placement of the mounting screw

 

3 pages and not ONE of the Nash Petty hood ornaments? Those are some of my all time favorites ... I'll see if I can find some pics.

 

These are the only two I could dig up on short notice ... the 51 (not pictured) is my favorite.

 

my wife wont let me post the pic of her on my hood

 

COOP has a cool piece. I asked him about it 2 years ago at Mooneyes and he was kind of a dick about it. He said "It is French". I was asking if it was a Jeff Decker piece. Anyone have a pic?

 

You might ask Coop himself for a pic and details... nicely.

 

By no means did I want to start shit. He just had a really nice piece. So I guess I take back any innuendo that he is a dick. I do not want to get in a pissing match, just would like to see it.

 

Here's a few...

 

Yep it really had a hood, never saw the road.

I think this is a hood ornament eyes light up to.

 

Hey Strombergs97, did you fab your hood ornament or buy it?
That would look great on my Hemi Ford. The color is great too.

 

I'd sure like one of these.

 

Here's a few more...

 

Here's one I picked at an estate sale a couple a years ago. -stick
