Default A few Neat Items picked up recently

I found these items recently at an estate sale.

Interesting what people have saved over the years.

Hood ornament is off a '50 Ford
Norton Traffic Light Viewer for car with exterior sunvisor.
Lawson Can Cutter oil spout new in box
Camel Tire patch in metal can
American Outboard Motor Oil Can- full

Several other items I thought were neat to find.

I love collecting smalls like these. Still looking for a reasonably priced lighted Pontiac Chief Head hood ornament just to display with my car items.

Nice finds!

Since we are "hot patching", I thought this would come in handy!

I put one of those pewter 64's on eBay a few years ago. Got 125.00 for it!

I hit one of my favorite honey holes over the weekend. The guy has quite a few license plates. I found 3 Iowa plates from the 50’s that were bolted together with 2 of those license plate “jewels”. Look kind of like old school blue dots. Anyway I couldn’t get the nuts off the jewels as they had some rust on them, so I asked “How much for the 3 plates and jewels, I’ll have to separate them at home. His answer-$2!
Score.

That's a pretty nice Parker vise. Most people don't know they were part of Parker Brothers gun makers too.

My kit says you're missing stuff. Mine's missing meter and instructions. Similar instructions can be found here...

Great find! The hood ornament is somewhat rare.
