What do you think a reproduced Tow Hook would be worth????

I am currently taking my second semester of Metalsmithing up here at Kansas State. This class I am taking is dealing with casting and I have grown very interested with the process. I have produced a Keeffe(My lastname) vintage looking dealership emblem with my hometown on it to put either on my chevelle or my truck. My question is "With all of the buzz around the price of tow hooks now, how much could one make if they were successful on reproducing tow hooks???? I have several sets and could make 1969-1972 set, the 1972 set only, and I know where I could get a 1968 set to mold from, but it was just an idea. If you think that's a bad idea... I won't step on anyone's toes that is like me and be sitting on some serious money with originals, I wouldn't call them originals and charged really high for them, but with going to college some cash flow during school would really help out paying off loans a little bit here and there. I will probably get flamed for this, but I wondered what some of my truck friends would say about something like this. I know there have been several threads about why nobody reproduces them. Anyway, thanks guys. Trevor
