Long Beach Car Swap Meet, Part 1 -- Sunday, February 14, 2016

This is an older hood ornament for a Jaguar.  It's the smaller version (there's a larger version that was used on some of the cars).  I plan to clean it up a little bit and mount it on a piece of purple Brazilian wood that I already have...

Radio Blanking plate for 49/50 Plymouth...

Radio Grille for 1940 Plymouth

Audi AVUS...  Was built as a concept car around 1990.  I remember buying a  1/87th scale model of it made by Herpa.
As I recall, the tiny model was very expensive... ($20?).

Boat Fuel Filler...  (should be chrome plated brass)

Don't recall what era Corvette hood badge this is without doing some research...  Guess is early 1980's...  It's cast metal and is very nicely made.

Late 80's Buick Riviera Horn button.  It's amazingly well made.  The center badge is cloisonne and the outer is covered by real leather with precise cuts on the back so that it can be folded over and made smooth without wrinkles at the edges.  This is of the highest quality!!!
