If the first picture is not confusing enough I don't know what is, sorry but I was not going to hurt myself moving them around. Here are a pair of the neon lite signs. I have never attempted to light them so I don't know if they work. As you can see the "A" is broke pretty bad. The only other damaged letter is the "N", the neon tubes do not appear broke. Each sign is 13' 6" long and the letters are 22" tall. The boxes the letters are mounted on is aluminum. All the letter have bright coloring and do not appear to be faded. These signs are very heavy, guessing around ...? 400 lbs? each. I am asking $2250 for the pair, mostly for the pain and suffering in moving them. I can bring them to Iowa Gas free of charge if they are sold and paid for. I will not be hauling them otherwise. Thanks for looking, Tom.

I would have to think that this is the only one available in the entire country! Pretty neat sign!

Maybe I'm prejudiced because I like Texaco and I also helped Tom load this sign when he bought it, but I think its really cool and unique and someone is missing the boat here? Granted, it takes some space to be able to display it, but it would be fairly easy to build an outside stand for it, and it would look SO COOL lit up at night! If I didn't live in a subdivision with restrictions, I'd have to own that sign!

As the old saying goes...size matters...maybe not in this case though...LOL. If the letters were removed from the monstrous can and the transformers mounted remotely then the signs wouldn't seem so huge. Heck you could recoup some bucks just in the salvage of the aluminum. Something like this is always hard to put a price on, especially when a couple of the letters have damage. I had to start somewhere so am open to offers till Sunday when I finish loading for Iowa.

I had a lot of interest in these signs back when I first posted them but no follow thru, then I more or less forgot about them. So I thought I would throw them back out there at $1750 or best offer. I will donate 10% of the sale to Oldgas, so the less you beat me down the more Oldgas gets...LOL Tom.

Have not had any interest this time around on these signs. The size must be the killer because I did not even get an offer. I would be open to trading for a pump/pumps/parts pumps or just gas pump parts. The offer to donate to Oldgas still stands. Thanks, Tom.
