Great week for me. Scored this 6ft Pontiac neon. Yes I got the guy to end his auction. He was 20 minutes from me. When I got there he was on the phone with a well known book writing east cost guy. So If it wasn't me it was going out east. Glad I beat him to it. Next is this great Indiana collectable. I guess Sun Glo was a small chain. Never have seen one myself. 48" with heavy ring. I just love the look and patina. I don't think I'll rub this down but display as is.

Greg, that is a great looking Sun-Glo sign! I picked up this Getty canister... Advertising the 60th Anniversary of Veedol... Inside were jigsaw puzzle pieces... Here is what the puzzle looks like, after I used only a small hammer to ensure the pieces fit:

That Sun-Glo is pretty cool!!
Here are my BOTW Veedol Porcelain Banner sign, Erie 70, cool shell oil can, and Pontiac copper tin. Not quite sure why base is a 90 model it looks to the pump original as does the ID tag. Keep the pictures coming.

Greg, I am glad you beat the East coast "book writer" to it. Within 3 months it would be on ebay as "unmolested advaced collector condition with day one gloss and color". Blah Blah Blah........LOL

I originally found one of these in Paris for $300.00 and had a devil of a time getting it through checkin and then US Customs. Anyway, it went away a long time ago and I've looked for a working model eversence and found this one on ebay over the weekend. You can see this one work on Youtube under Michelin compressor
