Re: hood orniments ?

Was there a specific package these were used on, or just as desired by the person ordering the truck?

I thought it was Packard. A buddy of mine is a hood ornament collector, and that one is one of his favorites. He's told me that they call that particular one "The Goddess Of Speed".

Re: hood orniments ?

My dad had one of a "flying lady", her breasts actually lit up when the lights were on. I need to ask if he still has that one or not. He had another that was almost identical that was just all chrome, he had it on a lot of trucks back in the 70's and 80's. Was probably a good foot long and oh so shiny!
