Yes, I did find a sign maker and they are currently in the process of making an exact replica of the old 42 inch Texaco Filling Station sign for me. Actually, they are making 2 for me.
The price is not cheap at all, but this will be a very nice, painted metal sign. They offered me several different choices, such as having the sign embossed, having a hard-heavy plastic embossed sign made (which actually looked really awesome, this was the most expensive of the choices, it was about 3/4" thick), and then the one I chose, the painted metal 42 inch double-sided sign.
Since this is the first one they made, I had to pay for all the computer programs that copied the image, the transferring of it to the sign, etc, so the 1st sign cost me $1500, and for the 2nd sign, it was $750. Not Cheap. But then again, I didnt do very much looking around.
I sent out about 6 emails, and they were the only ones to respond, so, they got my business. I guess the others had enough business already, who knows.
if you are interested in getting one made, you can either email me at joe68stpete@aol.com, or email the sign maker directly at sales@visigraphcorp.com. His name is Barry.
Thanks for all the help guys!
