When I’m out taking all these car show pictures, there are some design elements that I almost always have to stop and shoot. Hood ornaments seem to be one of them. I love thinking that some designer said, “you know how we can make this look better? Put a twenty pound, chrome-plated, flying naked woman on the end of the hood.” That is just awesomeness right there. And you can be sure that nothing like that is going to turn up on any new cars anytime soon. With that in mind, I thought we’d take some time today and check out a few notable hood ornaments from the good old days.
