Light Up Knob

Who out there lost this knob and from what did it come?

Thanks, Jay

Early 30s cigar lighter, not sure of the make/model/year

Is it for sale?

Looks like a Cats Eye Cig lighter from the 40's. The center glows as the element get hot. I understand these were Chevrolet Accessories in the post WW2 era. Not sure about that. May be folk lore.

Since it's amber, it's either for Cadillac or Packard of the 1930s, early '40s. If it were green, it would be for Chevrolet.

Yes it is currently for sale on ebay with a starting price of .99 cents if anyone needs it. Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/30s-40s-C...sspagenameZWDVW

Thanks for the help in id'ing the part everyone, I hate disposing of items that other people may need and once identified I can get the part to someone who needs it via ebay.

I myself am always looking for parts/cars in the southeast (I am located in South Carolina & Florida) for a 1949 Plymouth four door and two business coupes that I am restoring and would be willing to trade or sell a bunch of unidentified NOS parts as well as some fuel pumps, alternaters and other parts that I have yet to go through and identify.

Thanks again, -Jay
