TerryB Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Close, 1956 based on the location of the V under the emblem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ragtop4two Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Derek Feagin, if you don't mind me asking, how did you acquire these parts? Did you buy a property with them left behind, estate sale or other? Sometimes that story is quite interesting also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Feagin Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 My Dad was a collector of cars and car parts and he passed away a little over a year ago and we are starting to clean some things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragtop4two Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Sorry to hear Derek, but you'll get some great advice here. Keep posting questions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterc9 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Doesn't look like 56 Chevy. No holes to mount the airplane and no center ridge behind the airplane. The rear of the 56 Chevy hood is wider than the front. Looks like a 58 cadillac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 MisterC is right about the lack of holes for the ornament but the 58 Caddy has two prominent fins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Feagin Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Yeah it does kinda look like that.. Should there be holes where the dual fins would go on top? I dont see any holes on top of the hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Feagin Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 I was just informed that this is a 1958 Chevy hood that goes with this car: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1958-Chevy-Parts-Car-/132223014308? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 It's nice when you solve it yourself. 58 Chevy had fender ornaments, not hood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
