Now, the problem is- - - - how to mount it on a model A?
It is beautiful work.

This is a original photo of my Dad's 28 Roadster taken in Irish Hills State Park in Michigan in the summer of 1935. If you look closely at the hood, you'll see the hood ornament is a Greyhound

As others have said, very nice job!

I believe that particular Greyhound version is made to fit on a 1935 or 1936 Ford. Might want to post on the Early V8 forum also.

There were greyhound hood ornaments for the Model A however not produced by/for Ford.

I think it’s a 33 or 34

Re: Ford Greyhound Hood Ornament
 

Not a 33 or 34. They were attached to the radiator cap.

Very nice craftsmanship

Re: Ford Greyhound Hood Ornament
 

This is a 35-36 dog….awesome job. I manufacture and sell dogs for 33 and 34….

That's an awesome photo, especially when it's your dad living it up.
