Auburn Flying Lady Hood Ornament

If you put hex chrome next to stainless steele you will see a large color difference.

I guess I should clarify my other post. The ornaments Auburn/Cord sells are solid stainless that is then flash chromed so they look correct. The stainless base just keeps it from pitting so it'll last forever.

I was thinking of one for a library shelf. I was intrigued by the low starting price on eBay but it quickly got out of hand.

My Cord 810 is crying out for more parts so I have to take care of that first.

Thanks for the information though. At least I know what someone is going to have to spend

IF THEY REALLY WANT TO GIVE ME SOMETHING NEAT FOR FATHER'S DAY.

Are you reading this kids?

They are made out of stainless. I believe they run $600-650. Auburn/Cord has them.

That's a pretty wide spread! I guess that beauty is in the eye of the beholder on all of this stuff.

I saw one one eBay a long time ago, (about when I posted the original message). I think it went for $400+

Condition,condition,condition. That said, $25 - $450

Anyone know what one of these is worth?
