If it won't move, get a bigger wrench.
If it breaks, it needed fixing anyway.

very similar to a 51. It might be an aftermarket version though.

A real 48-51 bird has two slots for the wings.

Just look on the underside. There should be a six digit Packard part number. I think it starts with 403---. This one looks like a J C Whitney.

It looks like the aftermarket type for the lighted plastic wings.

Here are some photos of a correct Packard hood ornament body for 1948 to 1951 models.

The part number cast into the base is 407014.
