Vintage G.M.C.-3 chrome jet plane hood ornament. . The hollow pedestal base has a diameter of 16″ x 6 1/2″. The distance between the two rusted screw holes is 9″ to center. The hood ornament is in *Poor to Average used condition because of the following:
The item has negatives:
– pitting.- does chrome rust? No, but it has that roughness and some discoloration.- the nose screw is rusted indicating it is not original as I thought those were chrome as well.- there are rusted screws in the mounting holes.- it appears this item was hack-sawed off because the mounting holes have fresh scratches and the item does not rest evenly on its mounting brackets. (photos 6, 7, and 8)- we do not know the make and model. Another er had a G.M.C. 4 and thought it was from a 1951 something or other.- dent marks on the top of the tail fin. (photo 5)
The hood ornament has positives:
– pleasing design. (my opinion)
– solid piece.
– screw receptacles if you can get those old screws with no heads out.- clear part number.- low opening bid.
– no reserve.
