I'm sure I'll catch some hell for this...but I do believe this sign was far enough "GONE" that I may get a 'Pass' for what I eventually did to it. I actually pulled it out of the initial metal drop-off bin at my local recycler. The original Scrapper that dropped it off saw me pull it out of the bin and thought I was crazy for paying $10 for it...

Dig it Boxcar. Respect the time and effort you gave to that old sign and it has the look. Nothing like bringing back stuff from the dead.

Looks great. I like the way you kept an old aged look to it. It is fun saving something like that.

Thanks fellas...just a hack level sprucing up but it WASsssss on its death-bed at the time. So I figured that beyond just 'stabilizing' the rotted thing I'd try to mitigate a portion of the visual distractions. So many other projects I had moved quickly. I do appreciate your collective reviews!
