Hope it's saved.A lot of old neon signs are being lost because of removal costs or some big corporations can't be bothered taking the time to save them.

No problem taking that out with my 28 ton crane but I would have to drive it from nj. Lift it out of ground but you got to be carful dismantling the signage itself. Lay it on a 53' trailer and put it in front of someone's car museum or garage man cave. That sign has to be saved! If I was closer I would offer my services. There has to be some members nearby who has a tree service friend with a 100' crane and is a car lover who would pro bono his crane and trailer. Even if he has to pay the crane bill it's well worth it. That sign is $50,000 if not more new.
