Unique and very nice looking item.
I like SINCLAIR and old American made stuff ... No china items.

Looks great Duane, nice resto too! Looks really clean.
I have one a lot like it, same base, but made to hold two stoplights back to back. I havent restored it yet, needs a ton of work and the paint is soooo thick, must be like ten coats of paint on it! Ive been wondering how tall to make it and if I should put an old style street sign on top. Was thinking about going green and black paint with it, but also not sure on that either. I think a lot of them were yellow too.

Excellent size! Not too tall, right height to keep that "stately look" to it... Congrats, on adding it to your Collection!

I am still waiting to see a picture of him "Picking up his first traffic light". Duane, you might pick up the light but taking the selfie is gonna be tough.  This should be easier than all the guys that say they picked up their first "Pump". I'll believe that when I see it. Like all your stuff. EXCELLE Display.
