Not sure if you have International Trucks in the UK, But I have been after this sign
to compliment my truck for a few years. Sign is from the 40s.

We have Old Ford enamels but I’ve never seen an old Chevy.
I’m pretty sure we didn’t have Chevy dealers back then. We do now though :)
Lovely truck by the way |

I wanted to keep the "patina"
keep it looking like an old farm truck. |

I bet that draws some admiring glances , when you're out and about . Would imagine it's a bit of a "beast" to drive , though . |

Yes, I do get alot of waves and thumbs ups, and it is not that bad
to drive, rough ride (suspension) and not very fast, tops out at 60ish (mph).
Fun truck to have!!
