I finally launched a Web site to display stuff from my collections. It is ready, but I'm struggling to find time to take the photos and add them to the site with everything else going on. Many of my auto paint cans are shown, but only a small percentage of my other stuff is there. I'm having fun with it. Thought I'd let you see it in progress. http://www.oldgarage.com/ ------------------ Jim "Oldgas" PottsYour host and moderator

There are a lot of items that are packed or stacked and need to have pictures taken. I'll get to it in time.
I've got a bunch of Bardahl signs and cans yet to be posted. More Zephyr to come, but not those two Brad. You promised me those are in your will with my name, remember? LOL
It is amazing to me that I don't see more real old Ditzler and DuPont auto paint cans. I do have more to post. Maureen let me hang the Ditzler neon in the kitchen. When I turn it on, the house looks like it is on fire with the red light shining out the windows. It's my favorite and even she likes it.

Great site Jim! I love the paint and body stuff! A while back someone had some old automotive paint cans for sale on here and I was going to post that you collected them and say that you should post some pics for us. I never did but I'm glad to see you are sharing them on this new site. I like the old paint cans. I love how graphic some of them are. THANKS!!!
