I need 6 '55 Buick hood ornaments... Does anyone sell reproductions or anything like that? Need them like in the next few days, so a good resource would be awesome...

Maybe they have a bulk discount?
After all, most people only order one so they have to make up their profit on the each...
You got a resale number?

For trophies?
Cast 'em and powder coat 'em.

Just a thought.

Went to Weird stuff and no luck. They had a bunch of other really cool hood orniments and a full set of coker wide whites though. The owner wasn't there so I dont know what the www were going for. He is bringing them to the swap at the Woodlands this weekend.
