It appears to be the correct hood ornament - less the plastic sail.

It is indeed the original hood ornament less the plastic sail. You can even read the "Kaiser" inscription on the side of the ornament when you hover the cursor over it.  I think those sails are being reproduced aren't they?

Don Pribble was the gentleman making those sails.    Don't know if he is still re-creating them any longer or not.

I called him a couple of years ago and he was no longer making them.
