Expert Posts: 1886     | I wanted to start a thread that I'll update as I acquire pieces for the museum. I'm always open to feedback. I want to track down a nice imperial neon, an additional desoto sign and then open from there. I'm getting a lot of medium and small pieces as well. The museum is 12k sq/ft in total with around 1200 sq/ft of office space. The office space will have the smalls to display. Oddball items from promotional items, signs and records. I'll keep the firemites and pedal cars in here as well. Anything that's from the 50's and has mopar/chrysler/dodge/plymouth/imperial on it, I have interest in. I'm only looking for original pieces, not remanufactured. For the right price of course :). Here are some of the dealership style signs I have:     | ||

  Location: Parts Unknown | Awesome stuff, Mike. I have been angling more towards the 1900-1930 vintage stuff, but it is ALL super cool. Came across a wad of NOS Red Crown, Zeroline, and Pearl Oil stuff today. Still had cosmoline between the signs ! Cars are cool, but a shop well hung with "the right stuff" makes everything that much more special. I just love puttering around in my shop amongst the cars and stuff. Thanks for sharing. Great stuff.  Edited by Doctor DeSoto 2018-02-04 12:50 AM | ||

Expert Posts: 1886 | Got these amazing 1956 Chrysler dealer posters. Never mounted, still have the tube with postage on them from 1956!   Edited by Mike McCandless 2018-02-04 3:40 PM | ||
