Like the Mohawk tire sign, I worked for them for a short time around 76-77

That is a very colorful garage you have there Earl. Looks very inviting! Thanks for sharing. Wow!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img]

Thanks. It's small compared to some of my friends shops and collections, but I enjoy it a lot. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Nice collection of cars Earl. And a VERY impressive collection of gas pumps and signs.

I only have a couple of old signs, both Studebaker related. Because I have a 49 Studebaker truck, I got a moth eaten banner touting the new lift the hood access, and a used car sign encouraging to Always Buy Certified. Studebaker had certified pre owned waaaay back in the day.
In fact, on the subject of being ahead of its time in some areas, my 53 Commander has a hill holder solenoid, something I just saw Lincoln touting on new cars. It also has a lock up converter, something the General didn't mess with until the 80's.

Anyway, here are pics of my pathetic sign collection, along with a couple of most of the current stable.
I am really looking forward to building a separate work shop. I am tired of working on stuff in this garage. Gets all the cars dirty.
We bought the building next door. Supposed to meet with the building inspector next week to get an idea of what I can do.

Nothing wrong with that old building Lynn, in fact I think it's really really cool. Knowing me I'd have all the walls decked in gas pumps and neon around the joint.

Love that Z tucked back in there but shouldn't it be at the front of the line so it can be brought out more often? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

The banners and signs are cool nonetheless.

Actually the Mercedes and the El Camino are out regularly, so the Z is easy to get to. Just been too hot. Black car, black interior, no ac.
Ouch.
