History Hood ornaments

Anybody seen one of these?

 

There's a place here in SoCal called " The Nethercutt Museum" and they have tons of hood ornaments. Here's the link http://www.nethercuttcollection.org/Home.aspx

 

thats so cool , reminds me of my wifes bazookas...lol

 

My best friend took this away from his kid! Now my hood(radiator) ornament..........Just adding to the post

 

This one looks a lot like something that has been added to a Deuce radiator cap,,the airplane is probably a piece from a trophy shop. HRP

 

Are you judging that from the fact that it's on a deuce radiator cap Sherlock?

 

When this one goes down the road the prop turns and the airflow over the wings make it lift just like areal plane. This was on a deuce 3window @ deuce days in Victoria this summer. Anyone know where it came from. I want one!

 

Yeah,,it's the first one I have ever seen..Watson!

Doing a little research I see exactly what you have said,,with speed it actually fly's..

It's called a Kwiksail" Flying Biplane Mascot. HRP

 

You could attach a banner to the tail that says "I am _____".

 

This one popped up before me on Old Style Weekend in Uddevalla, Sweden this year. Not a hood ornament really, but still a helluva cool handmade piece!
