I really appreciate all of the comments, especially when individual items are noticed. Hard to see details in the low res photos, you should see the full size images!
Yes, it's going to be some work moving it all but it will be a chance to display it in an even nicer location. Have a place picked out on some acreage on an island to the north with a nice shop and room to build a replica gas station. Really gonna miss the city life here in Seattle with vagrants, beggars, addicts, thieves, and drifters everywhere you look. Yeah, about as much as I'll miss the uber liberal city council and taxes for any initiative that comes along!
Luminor, the restored signs are just finished in a typical acrylic enamel and the really glossy ones probably had a hardener added.
Cheers, Vern
