I like that! I know you could figure out a way to make it fit, but don't do it!😄😄

That is very cool and should go really well with your neon Buick Service sign!

Great find!

It could be used for a hood ornament on your 65'  :laughing7:
That is from 1922 to 1927 I believe and looks to be for a small series
As it not very big. Also has dealer name if you look close!
It is from Pence automobile in Minneapolis I believe the building
Still stands it was one of the first dealerships in town . Google
It !
