Anyone recognize this hood ornament?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

It came on my 51 3100, and it's obviously been there a looong time but I don't know if it's from another vehicle or not. Looks like an ad on. I haven't seen this one among the repros so I don't know. Any ideas or pics of other interesting ornaments would be cool. Thanks

It is from a 1951 Chevrolet Styleline

The "shadow" in the paint is cool.

Looks more like a paint shadow in the patina.

Looks cool.

Thanks Tommy. I figured it might be something like that.

And however you see the "shadow" , I think its cool. Shows a history there.

Hey Tonka, did you get your new motor in? I saw that you got some recognition from this site a while back. Nice job.

Thanks 51 Okie!

No motor in yet, still pulling parts together.
