After an accident I am in search of a hood ornament for a 1939-40 pickup... The following Jim Carter link shows the one I am in need of. Thanks for your help.

K - I have one I purchased with some other items in hopes it was better than mine. It is not. Mine has a broken mounting flange as does the one I have available, so it will need repair or modification to mount it. As you already know where to find a nice one, I am not sure if this will suit your needs, but I will take some pics and PM you.

Hi Brendan. It might... Trying to get a re-pop is becoming very difficult. It seems that there is only one existing manufacturer for these and all the Chevy parts sites have it an back order. Mine was originally in 2 pieces and I successfully got it into a workable condition. But a minor accident turned into 4 pieces. If you are willing, maybe send me a couple of pics. Thx. Ken

Ken - look at these pics and let me know your thoughts.

A definite maybe... I may have found one just tonight from a local fellow I had sold some sheet metal to. Be back to you in a day or so.

Sounds good.

Morning Brendan. So as of Friday afternoon I have a non chromed re-pop coming from Jim Carter. They had been back ordered and the word was that they might never show. So in a week or so when I hopefully have it in my hands I will let you know. thx. Ken
