Yes, it was meant to be. We pulled into the parking lot of the junque shop and there it stood, waiting for me to come claim it!! My new tractor hood ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden ) It's from a Farmall M tractor, vintage unknown. Do you see the face or the possibility of a face? I'll post another photo when it is in it's new home. And tomorrow I will get photos of all the other goodies I found today.
It was meant to be Toni!! So glad it was still there for you and, yes, I do see the possibility of a face on it. :-D
Thanks you all. I knew it would be appreciated here, whereas my oldest daughter and some of Randy's friends just shook their heads in disbelief when he sent the photo to them yesterday afternoon. It's going in the yard pretty much as is. But I am thinking about painting on a second eye...just a half circle and a few eyelashes to make it look like the hood is winking.
So happy it was still there! And yep... definitely can see the face. I can't wait to see all the other treasures you found.
With it's temporary wink. Sent this photo to oldest daughter, youngest grandson (who is a kid after my own heart) texted back to say that is exactly what he would have done and he thought it is awesome!! the winking hood ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden )
Gives a whole new meaning to "hood-winked". (to any of you not familiar with the term... basically it means to be deceived).
It is unique for sure. I can see the face in it. It sort of reminds me of those Easter Island sculptures out in the Pacific someplace and the odd faces they have.
