Simple nobs are always good,I like odd ones best. First nob I ever got that I thought was cool was a Regal Beer tap ,it was about the size of a hardball about 3in. high,and it was a local beer maker here in Miami Fla. in the 50s. I ended up trading it to my buddy Rob Bean for a Schlitz tap in 1960,Rob had a 57 Chevy 3 on the tree,so the big 14in. tall tap would not work on his car but would on my roadster. Funny part is today the Regal tap goes for around $500 vs the bigger Schlitz tap goes for around $20. I still like it anyway.

 

Any other pics of this car?

In my Roadster, I can put any picture in there. Gary

 

Old, chromed and solid steel! Has just the right amount of patina on the chrome to look like it could be from the '50's. Too big in diameter to be from an old pinball machine. Got it from my used Model A and early V8 parts guy. Regards, Dave.

Mine...

 

I have a hobby/business that's more like a mission than a business. I find vintage pieces and survivors that I refurbish, if needed. I try to keep them out of the hands of collectors and actually find them new homes in vintage cars where they belong.
I shipped this one today and I'm wondering if it's going to another hamb-burger???

 

Decision's, decision's, decis ion's !

 

This is the one that will be in my truck when it's finished. It's a double tiger eye gemstone, T-handle-ish.

 

I had one back in '68 (Olds F85 1/4 miler on week ends, on the street week days).
I found another old survivor last year and had to have it. Just looking for the right car to slide up under the "monkey paw" now.
