Hey everyone. stopped by old gas to see what was new. I haven't been here for a long time. I have a guy coming by this weekend to buy all the signs that I found in this post... well most of them anyway. Dont think i would ever part with my wooden SOCONY sign. It was fun going back to this post and remembering the excitement I had with my find.

IF anyone is ever on a trip, DO NOT order the Bonjimmi unless your heading to a motel SOON. It'll make ya do a skip & 2 step just as soon as ya find a Rest Stop! **[for the newer members the reference above is part of a Fantasy Story I conjured up a few years ago using members User Names!]** Good to see posting again Jim.

File MUST be less than 150K, PLUS there has to be some kind of Text [.] if nothing else. OR upload w/ ImageShack/PhotoBucket [BOTH are FREE Image Hosting sites. Use the TEST Forum & there is some Excellent Tutorials there.

Great finds....must be difficult selling them after the thrill of finding, digging and cleaning them.

Thanks DB... I think I got it now. I found these signs on another cesspool on my property about 3 weeks ago. They are still very dirty . I will clean them up and post a pic of them so we all can see how they look.
