What is the emblem on this roadster's decklid????

This is Paul Gommi's duece roadster. All parts on this thing are pre 52. What is the wing emblem that he has his decklid handle in ? Kinda looks like the wing emblems that are on the new PT cruisers and dodge trucks..but obviously it's not. Just wondering...looks pretty cool the way he did it. Anyone have any close up pics of one??

Thanks for your help.

looks like the Chrysler emblem from the 1930s

 

are there enough things stuck on , near , around the license plate?

 

yes,and cool too

 

maybe he likes folks tailgating him to look at that stuff..

 

cool car ,that's for sure

 

Hate to say it, but that looks like it might be a fairly current Chrysler set of wings, like on the PT Cruiser.

 

What are those wheels?

 

Look like AA's

 

divco, I think.

 

They look like the old Dodge Brothers winged emblems although larger.

 

'37 Chrysler:

Modern Chrysler:

 

Look a lot like 34 dodge Brothers

 

How about the little heat sink rings around the ends of the tailpipes...nice detail.

Porsche 356 I think...

 

I love those wheels!

Although it's a collection of "pre 52" parts it doesn't give off the vibe that it's an old build... too many rare parts. It's almost like they don't fit together.

The heat sinks could have been off a Brit bike as well.

 

we need "CSI"!! They blow things up on there computers so fast & easy that you can see whats in the trunk on a pic like this!!lol

Weight for balast to improve the ride.

Cool car, I could live without the wheels and multitude of tag toppers though...

 

if i remember correctly, a Triumph exhaust.

 

What's the "V" deal on the headlight?

A trick of light or paint?


Is the front end as busy as the rear?

Looks like it would be fun to see parked and try to ID all the stuff....

 

i believe it an early chrysler emblem to match the taillights, wheels are dodge high clearence truck, headlights are electroline

 

Elecroline headlights I belive...

 

Justin B beat me to it

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't those hard to come by these days? That roadster looks great and that use of the emblem is very cool.

 

There is a write up on that car in the last Hot Rod Deluxe.

 

beat you by seconds cris

yes the "divco" /kelsey hayes accesory wheels are pretty hard to find and pricey but the wheels on pauls car aren't them they are dodge truck wheels, i think they are 20x3.5 and have a 5-4.5 bolt pattern a whole lot more common than the divco's, still rare to see on a hot rod. pauls car is great, but it's a little to busy for me and looked better with the old wheels, these might be ok if he got rid of the 1" spacers/adapters so they'd fit closer in the back. still a bitchen car and paul's got a great collection of stuff. his panel is one of my favorites

 

They are 5x 4.5"...not 5x 5.5"??

 

yes 5x4.5, at least the ones i had awhile back were, and i'm pretty sure pauls are as well because he's running adapters with them

 

That's just plain ugy to me

 

Photo quality wasn't good enough
I don't have CSI enhancement capabilities
