I don't have the answers but I'm curious to see.

How are you producing the new ones?

The new ones will still be printed but out of copper and/or aluminum. Some will be chromed, painted, and/or epoxied. Also there will be other designs with more "realistic" horse head/mane.

They only had the one style and from all I've seen it ended in 1975. Different styles would be great but I'd suggest including an original reproduction in your selections. :)

Glen Pettit had some made up that are outstanding, but the chroming process wasn't working out well. He is recovering from a stroke now and we pray he will be back with us soon.

Thank you all for the input. That last white design is mine. I will have one in copper and aluminum soon. Also am working on something akin to the one Glen was making. I will also be creating some custom stuff.

I'm thinking a Buick 'gun sight' type ornament would look good.

Wasn't familiar with that one so I had to ask Mrs Google for pictures. That's an interesting ornament.

Browsing this thread led me to Google "funny hood ornaments".

 

... don't do that. :huh: Surely folks don't put such things on a vehicle...

 

But one did seem harmless enough:

      I recently began pondering what all i could 3d print to dress up a horse. I'm pretty good with deaign sofware and came up with a couple small items to start, and figured i can easily print things like headlight covers, hood ornaments, and badges of all sorts.Then I wondered if maybe rather than a decal if i 3d printed an embossed plate or sorts with the appropriate graphics in 3d. These could be enamel painted, or printed in a silver that would give a brushed nickel type of finish.
      Here's a couple photos of what ive created thus far in some gray test material. Please let me know what ya think.
