Chicken Car Topper History  This is an original Paul White Chicken Topper. This was most likely made in KY by Paul White sometime in the 70s or 80s and it is unknown if it was ever used on a car. The chicken comes in two pieces and has spent much of the last 20 years in outdoor storage. It is one of the more rare top hat versions compared to the more common version with no hat. This is the same style of chicken used on the Krekel cars in IL. The chicken comes as is and does need a restoration before it can be installed and used again. It can also be installed as a indoor display in it’s current vintage condition. Statue is located near Marion, IL. (Ends on Nov 30)

Fiberglass Pheasant History – This giant fiberglass pheasant is the original sculpture pulled from the mold and commissioned by the City of Gregory in 2000, later erected in 2004. It was the final piece ever created at FAST by founder Jerry Vettrus, who had recently sold the company but stayed on as a consultant. Jerry not only sculpted this artwork but personally hand-painted it for display along the highway. As the only original copy tied directly to Gregory, SD, it carries substantial artistic and historic significance. The pheasant shows some wear, including damage to the breast area and a missing section of the tail. When standing, the head reaches approximately 7–8 feet high, and the full tail height is about 10 feet; when hauled lying on its breast, it measures 11’10” from breast to tail tip and requires 14 feet of bridge clearance. The piece weighs an estimated 300–400 lbs—light enough to tip and maneuver with effort but far too heavy to lift from one side. Statue is located near Minneapolis, MN (Ends on Dec 7)
