I'd like one for a hood ornament on my Jeep. Remember the Pontiac Chieftain (or something) back in the 50s, which had the hood ornament that lit up at night?

There were some very beautiful ones back in the thirties, Rene Lalique make some fantastic blown glass ones, in particular I remember one that was a Butterfly, that had a light under the hood and a color wheel so that it changed colors as you drove, changed faster as you sped up too.

ENJOY!

Imagine that with red white and blue flashing under it!
