    Looks like oldsmobile to me but we'll see what everyone else says. I'll check my hubcaps tomorrow because they look the same.

    Definitely the Olds crest from the 1950s.
     

  5. Looks to be a 1928-1930 Oldsmobile radiator shell, but I can only see the top.

  9. Yep....looks like 1928 to me, but I am not an Oldsmobile guy. Rare piece, by the way.

    Ya it was pretty much a steal, so its currently wall art in the garage wasnt anything i had ever seen or looked too common so picked it up for the heck of it and it is a straight solid piece.

  15. You might check out the Oldsmobile forum on the AACA forums and get a feel for what someone there may pay for it. People are always asking what something is worth on there.
