I only have a two-car garage and the fence walls around the side and back of the house. I'm quickly running out of room. I have more signs that are in storage.

Here are some more of the garage. My 52 Ford Panel truck is usually parked on the empty side of the garage, but it's currently parked outside temporarily.







Here are my signs.

Send one of the sleds to D B and he can go over the hill on it when the Illinois and Minnesota snow gets there.

George, I think those are "creepers" not sleds? (I had to look a couple of times, especially at the older wood one, to make sure) The padded headrest makes me think, creeper not sled. But db could "play in traffic" or "steal" a neighbor's wooden fence and make his "getaway" using one of those creepers. Or at least that's what we use them here for, lol.

Thanks guys. That's what happens when one needs tri-focals and has dial-up. I didn't wait for the photos to "clear up", before opening my big mouth, LOL.

Hey Bob,
Those are SLAMMED CREEPER SLEDS !
Unlike you I don't have a Pace Maker to speed myself up going Down Hill. HE HE

In Southern Calif. [& SF Bay area] we have to add wheels to the sleds for them to be use full.

WOW! You been busy! I recognize a few things in there....LOL. You ever get tired of that Shell lense, give me holler! I was wondering if the skull over the cattle crossing sign was one poor critter who wasn't so lucky at the crossing!!

Thanks for the post badgas. Great display!

I've been working on a fence layout at my place; got a lot of ideas. I really like the mixing in of other stuff like the unrestored pump and such with the sign display. I think it really adds interest. I'll give that some thought. Thanks again.
