How much were they for sale for at Carlisle? Are they worth anything? I think it is pretty cool but he wants alot of money for it.

Is it actually neon?  Looks like a fluorescent tube behind a silk screened cover.

I bought a few like that,(fluorescent bulb behind a silk screen with a aluminum frame)
I got 3 and I got a deal, I got the one with a 68 Dodge Charger R/T , ad, the fast cure for Dodge fever, with the price of $3506 on it.
And two Road Runner ones.
One with the car and bird, and one with just the cartoon bird and coyote, on them.
They are cool, I got a deal on all three, but after I had them for a bit, I kinda think I may have over paid, they are cool, but it is just garage art, and I hardly every light them up.
I think I paid $150-$175 for all three shipped.
Again quality is good, but I don't even have a Roadrunner, and my Charger is a 69 not a 68 so......
Just be sure you like it, and the cool wont ware off like mine kind of have for me

Yeah, I guess looking at it more it is fluoresccent. Sorry, not neon. I thought it was cool but didn't know what they are worth?  Looks like around  $150? He wanted  $300.

If you want it that bad then it is worth it, but when I bought mine, they were advertised as "vintage" signs that used to hang in the dealerships back in the day, so I thought that made them cooler and worth more.
Turns out they are modern, made in last year or so, and there are a bunch out there.
SO just becareful.
Again if you love the design, and it fits you, and you just have to have it, go for it.
But just beware, I loved mine when I first got them, but soon had buyers remorse!!LOL
PM me your email and I will send you photos of mine, you can see if they are of the same constrution.
They look close, as mine also has vents/cooling holes on the top, and a chain for hanging.
And to be honest they look very easy to make, all home depot/hardware store stuff except the front image, that is the only thing that you couldnt do at home.

Heck I will look in to who I bought mine from, maybe the same guy, I do know that he was asking for a lot more then I offered.
Good Luck!!!

Got mine from "signseaker15" on ebay, but he has a few ebay names.
I paid $200 for two of them, and $100 for the last one I bought.
Now I remember why I had buyers remorse!!!
They may be worth $100 bucks each.

But thats $300 bucks in garage art, and they are not even hanging in my shop yet, as I was afraid of overspray getting on them, LOL!!

I also noticed that "signseaker15" has negitive feedback, that states "Signs were not VINTAGE or ORIGNAL as stated in the ad!"
so I guess others had found out what I did, but were a bit more pissed about it then me.
