Got a call today about a sign my friend saw next to a pig pen on a hog farm here in southern california, (yes i know, crazy) so I drove out expecting to see a shot up bullet holed barn hanger, and this guy was stuck in the mud, laying on its side. I could tell right away what it was under the grime. A little time at the local drive in car was and.....wow! Original base, no touch up, nothing....

Great story , you should teach that puppy to sniff out more , he has picked up the scent now . All joking aside that's a really nice find!


I like SINCLAIR and old American made stuff ... No china items.

based on the way that dog is sniffing, you may need to take it to the car wash again...Congrats on the find.
