Those are neat. When I was a kid... between the ages of 13 and 15 I suppose, my friends (NOT me) used to run around the apartment complex and steal hood ornaments off the cars. Evil!!!!

A kick for sure, and possibly a ticket if you went driving with it.

Yep, same happened to me when my friends went out TP'ing houses on mischief night.

My father always used to tell a story about how during the great depression , "his friends" would drop cats off of overpasses into the smokestacks of Train locomotives. He always said , and I quote
" My friends did that, not me ......" :wink:

Indian motorcycles (defunct since the '50s - like Harley-Davidsons but much more garish) had hood ornaments, even though they didn't have hoods. Pretty neat trick - illuminated, too!
