If you’ve got an old car in the garage, the Antique Auto Accent weathervane is the figure for the roof above it. It’s a vintage automobile in silhouette, mounted above a directional arrow. Car club members and people restoring an early vehicle are the usual buyers, and it makes a good gift for one of them.

How the Antique Auto Accent weathervane is made

Like everything in this line, it’s cast in the USA from recycled aluminum, so it will not rust. The car, the arrow and the directionals are cast parts. An all-weather protective coating covers the finished casting, and a five-year warranty stands behind it.

Black only, by design

The Antique Auto Accent weathervane comes in Black only. For a car silhouette that’s the right choice, because the shape of the body and the wheels is what makes it recognizable. A dark outline against the sky reads as an old car from the street. Anything brighter would turn it into a shape you’d have to guess at.

Where people put it

The 30 inch size is the larger of the two accent sizes, so it carries from the road. A detached garage or carriage house is the natural spot. It also works on a barn where the cars are kept, or on the shop roof at a restoration business. The arrow turns to face the wind, which is useful on a day you plan to take the top down.

There’s nothing to personalize on an Antique Auto Accent weathervane, so order it when you’re ready. The other 30 inch figures, including the Tractor, are on our weathervanes page. For the garage wall, the cast hooks and hangers use the same aluminum and finish.
