I did the other side with somenolder license plates I just picked up at a flea market.

I kinda feel bad for cutting them up, but it's worth it.

I love collecting street signs and license plates, before my great grandfather passed away he had at least 4 sheds/pole barns that were completely covered on the inside with street signs. It was the coolest thing ever

This is what it looked like when I bought it. It was in rough shape but it didn't look too bad. I should have brought a magnet with me lol

Looking good. I almost wanna start another project. I’m thinking like a Buick riviera. Like a 67 or 68. Wanted one since I was a kid. It was ALMOST my first car.

The worst thing i saw was a 75’or 76’ 1 ton stake bed plastering co. Truck. The guy plastered the whole exterior of the truck in knockdown like you see on a home in the southwest in light pastel green no less.
