We're in the wrong game lads....

...instead of driving old shit around we should be collecting signs for them instead...

would love some of them but click on the pictures to see the prices, is that really the going rate for these sort of things?

do we know whether he actually manages to sell any of them?

I'm a rich man then. I've got quite a few enamel signs knocking about. Some of the ones he lists are reasonably priced, others are a bit mental. Rule of thumb in the enamel sign game is 'find an established fuel brand in a roundel, think up a price tag and then double it'.

 

I've got a massive SHELLMEX sign from the thirties, some kind of barking diamond shaped Renault 'Tracteurs Agricoles' thing, a few London signs and a French roadwork triangle.

Ah yes, Shell. I'd sooner have a 12 foot square 'I LOVE MONDEO MK2S' banner in my garage than advertise those twats.

saw american pickers last night and a jeep illuminated sign they bought for 120 dollars sold on for 1000
