I dont know weather to hang this thing on the chicken coup or next step up hang it on the side of the shop or try and repaint the thing. Any help or ideas? Also any ideas what a sign like this Chevron would sell for?

Thanks

I think it would look great restored. The Chevron is a cool sign. The condition is everything when pricing a sign.

Sorry Brad.... I disagree. If you repaint (restore) the piston ring sign, you just might as well start with a blank piece of metal. This is one time when "Its only original once" applies. Yes, its rusted and faded, but that tells a story. Rick, I would hang it as it is.

I think it looks better in original condition. My opinion is better then the people that disagree with me.

Give that Chevron to me and I'll be your bestest friend. Isn't friendship priceless?
Hang the other sign as is. I like the character it has.
