Here is a Mobiloil double sided cabinet that went on the island at a service station that I picked up in Hershey this fall.It is from Europe,it is ALL porcelain from top to bottom and side to side. It has two shelves in it and a door on each side with a lock and key for opening to put stuff in. It never had lites in it because it sat outside, so I put a lite under each shelf to display in my basement. It is the nicest looking cabinet I've ever seen, the Mobiloil emblems at the bottom on both sides are moulded into the panel , not an attatched piece of porcelain like the gas pumps.Just thought the Mobiloil collectors out there might like a look at it..

I think what is real special about it is the fact that it is all solid porcelain, no paint anywhere inclulding the two shelves,it only has like 2-3 chips the size of a rubber on a lead pencil on it,, and it shines and polishes nicer than my wifes new Toyota Camray,,, ha,ha,, hadn't better let her see me putting that on here, LOL ! Glad you like it..

Wes,
Thats about the nicest looking cabinet I have seen. My wife might even allow something like that in the house which is about the highest compliment than I can give.

Hey Wes,

I'm the one you bought the cabinet from. Glad to hear your happy with it, it was a great piece there's just not enough room to keep everything.

Keith

Keith, are you the Keith Elza that John is telling me about,,,, then your the one that told him about it,,,
Your right, I like it alot,,,I have had a couple of guys interested in buying it,,, I'm not sure if they know the value of it,,, I thought it was a lot when I bought it from you, but now, I don't think it was ,,,it will likely stay with me for quite some time..
