Exterior wall it will be cleaned and 3 coats of semi gloss clear will be put on it to protect it.

It was already apart when I bought it but roughly 30-35 pieces.

Back in the late 70s, there was a shed by the side of the road, painted w/a Coke sign. A few years later, I saw someone dismantling it. I stopped to ask what they were going to do w/it. I was told they were going to make some kind of "craft" things with the old barn wood. Talk about desecration!! I never did like crafts.

That will make an awesome backdrop with a bunch of machine in front of it. Perfect for a gameroom.

That's really cool. I have a wood sign that came off a store with the same silhouette on it.

There used to be a Coca Cola sign on my place from the 1930's that was painted over along time ago someday I hope to uncover it and have it restored
