I mean, sure, I could have a classic ornament like the one that CoFL keeps taking stunning photographs of...

But Jeeps and hood ornaments have never been a thing...

(ok, maybe the Grand Wagoneer, and what a great ornament it is)

(and maybe the Willys Jeep Truck)

But for Halloween I decided I needed one to complement !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

I have a much larger one prepared, but I’ll probably save it for Halloween day, because it looks vastly sillier than the frog, and it might well blow off the Jeep despite the powerful magnets I’m using.

Happy Halloween! (Soon.)

I fear for your paint, but this is pretty funny.

I’m trying to be careful, but yeah, it worried me a bit.

On the other hand, the grille is already heavily chipped, and the right front fender is totally banged up and rusting , so whatchagonnado.

I’m using similar magnets to hold up the headliner in my Camaro. Hey, it’s easier than actually fixing the damn thing.

I have one of those Rams, bought it at a yard sale for 3 bikes. I plan to put it on the front fender of my big Schiwnn bike.

I can’t say I’ve ever driven a vehicle with a hood ornament. I did know a guy in high school with a three pointed star on his B enz I rode in a couple times but that’s about it.

It's in the middle of nowhere but well worth the drop.

Thanks for sharing it, although I think the real reason is CarsofFortLangley’s pic.

Which reminds me, time to put an explicit credit on that.
