[Oletrucks] hood ornamant

[ARIZONA REAL ESTATE]

Since we are giving our opinions on this hood ornament holes mystery, I vote
to put a rare hood ornament on the hood.  I am one of those guys who enjoys
having the rare, unique accessory on my rides.  Like for example, on my RED
RYDER, I have a very, very rare original after market dimmer switch foot
pedal.  I have even saved the cardboard display card for it.

So now the question
 is, do you buy the repop hood ornament or fill in the
holes?

On my '54 I had the original "hood bird" and chose to sell it and weld in the
holes but I'm one of those who thinks less is more.
