Help identifying these auction find part

I got these parts in a box of stuff at an auction and I know that some hood ornaments and lights can be worth something to the right people I'm wondering if any one can help identify the following. The Indian head ( feather broken off, not sure if I can get restored or not) is the rad cap from a Pontiac but not sure what year and the other hood ornament is from a Chevrolet but don't know what car or truck and year. Both light lenses I have no idea what they are off of

Cool. Looks like some very vintage stuff. Sorry I can't help identify any of it.

The Indian Head ornament is a radiator cap from a 1929-1931 Pontiac... But it's broken. It should have long feathers coming off the back of the head:

It would be worth about $500-$700 if it was intact. :cry:

I did find one old Ebay auction for one that was broken the same yours is, that went for $75.

Even 75 bucks would be good as I got the whole lot for 2 dollars.

well, then you will probably love this... The lense that says STOP on it is a 1928-1931 Ford Model A duolamp tail light lense. If it's plastic, then it's a replacement part, and is worth about 30-40 bucks. If it's glass, then it's OEM, and could be worth up to 100 bucks.
