Mark Wetherbee Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Pretty sure it is only for the truck, and 34 sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayne sheldon Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I am no authority on early '30s Chevys. However, I think that cap was an optional extra for cars or trucks. Rarely have I ever seen such caps on trucks. Once on a ton and half hot rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John348 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) That was the cap for the 34 Master passenger car. The trucks had cap called "The Sea Horse" . It is very cool looking if you get a chance to see it, real art deco stuff both of the caps Edited August 9, 2020 by John348 (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Wetherbee Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Yup, I take it back... I was thinking about the seahorse mascot. Here’s the picture in “Motoring Mascots of the World” by Bill Williams: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
