The before photo is the exact pic from the craigslist ad. The seller told me that the clock had hung on his uncle's gas station til the mid 80's when the building came down. The can was [and is] a rusted basket case- every other screw head broke off. I probably should have let someone else buy it and get her up and running again, but I just want to rescue these puppies, hard to describe. New neon [both tubes were broken], transformer, and electric clock motor [the movement was usable]. For whatever reason, someone scraped the serial number sticker off of the face, and left behind some monster gouges.
