So this was given to me as one of the few things from my Grandad’s quarter horse racing days. There were lots of trophies but I don’t know where they all went, I suppose lots went to cousins. But I got the hood ornament off his hauling rig. I just don’t know what to do with it. I want it saved and displayed. [Linked Image]

Mount it on a nice block of wood. Find a nice burl or some other highly figured piece.

Neat thing to remember your Grandpa by. smile

I would hit a you pull it junk yard and pull the oldest hood I could find, cut the front off as you want and mount it on that and make a wall hanger.

Make a form, encase in epoxy. Light below it. Something like this, but with the ornament inside
