Sommers Radiator Mascots

Unknown

We had some discussion about radiator mascots for the '28s a few days

ago. Don Sommers has made up some of these in the past out of stainless

steel. He also did a chrome plated special that has the '28 mascot mounted to

a '29 faceted style cap. I have one of the later mascots and am very happy

with it. Bob mentioned that the repops had much of the lovely original detail

polished off, but having never seen an original I can't comment on that. The

Sommers repops are certainly good enough for touring and I would not hesitate

to order another one for the Roadster when the time comes should nothing

better be available. Of course if somebody wants to make some more accurate

ones, please add me to the list.
