The author has picked Friesian from the suggestions you guys gave yesterday, so I'll stick with that.
I am *so* tempted to take liberties with the tack. I mean, it's a car! Chrome grill very important here.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because books.
If the Impala is magically turning into a horse, I think the tack could be magical, too. Have fun with it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
If the impala turned into a horse and carriage there's all sorts of flashy bits people used to put on to ward off the 'evil eye'.

Chrome/big ass metal decorations at the corners of the bit, ita. Period-appropriate and you could TOTALLY sneak in devil's traps and stuff.

Arthur's a cariage horse but I think you could take some liberties with riding tack. Note the forehead ornament.

There would be nothing keeping your character from having a Spanish bridle from Mexico or California: [link] [link]

Yeah, lots of silver would totally work.
And the horse could have "high chrome" too - but that would have been frowned upon by many in the 19th century.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
What the hell kind of bit is that last one? Looks like a torture device--tack by the Spanish Inquisition. Also, now I'm humming Boots of Spanish Leather. Which is a reprieve from "Gelderland! Gelderland. Gelderland, Gelderland, Gelderland!" from A Knight's Tale, prompted by a breed I'd never heard of in one of those links, the Gelderlander.
ita, I completely agree with Ginger--Mexican silver was all over the place on tack and haberdashery. It would not be unusual at all for a silver-mounted bridle to show up on a flashy black horse.
Now. Mare? or not?
