Very nice! Wish I were in the market for one, but I'm still trying to get the time to rebuild my 73 Mach.
I would love to see pics if you have any. I thought about buying a 71 at one time. |

Unfortunately, it's been in storage for a number of years...even before they had digital cameras, so I don't have any at the moment. I had to put it in storage when I got stationed in Hawaii, then in Japan, so I just put it away until I was able to pull it out and start working on it. Now that I've retired and have the time, now I just need the money!!!! Soon though...I hope.

That would be a 48" Texaco,
I have a buddy with a 71 Boss 351 Mustang, Same story as yours goes been tucked away in storage for many years, Sadly will probably never see day light again as long as he owns it.

Ouch! Mine will definitely come out of storage, I just have to finish getting settled in and get my new career underway and pay settled so that I can begin making future plans once again. In the meantime, I get to do little projects like Coke machines!!
Reference the Texaco sign, is the pic what you guys are looking for? I think this may be a 48-incher and is an original. If you know plywood that kind of plywood siding, you can get an idea of how wide by counting the spaces, which is roughly 10 spaces across. I know it's a big sign. I'll get a more precise measurement this weekend. We're picking up this stuff on Thursday and Friday. This one will up for auction next month...more details to follow once date is set.

kntreyn... no I don't have the 48 incher either.... Got to start somewhere though. I have been out bid at a couple auction on Texaco signs, but I will get one eventually. One of my Coke machines came out of my great Grandpa's Texaco station, thus why I want a sign to go next to it. Plus I like big pieces that take up lots of space... Thanks for looking out and keep me updated.
