Nickey sign

[notstock71]

I don't think I've shared this but thought some may appreciate it. I made this sign for dad for Christmas a handful of years ago. It started out as a simple idea but ended up a MAJOR project with only weeks to do it. I intended for it to be smaller but for some reason I thought I'd go just a little bigger. I didnt factor the lights and everything else in so needless to say it is really heavy. I don't have all the pictures available of every step but you can get the general idea. The best was when he unwrapped it. He really liked it but then we handed him the photo album showing every step. He didn't realize it was made by me until he got to the picture of my son who was 9 at the time learning to paint and masking it off for the layers of color and clear. He was speechless.

Very cool sign! I would love to see one of those in the garage above my Nickey ZL1 Super Camaro.

The sign is a one off and I'm sure if I did make more Stefano would not be real happy with me. Any pictures of the Chevelle and Camaro? A black Cherry 70 is her dream car and I'd love to have a ZL1, being a Nickey is icing on the cake.

Thanks for the compliments, it ended up being 4 foot wide by 30&quot; tall. We had to run lag bolts into the studs to hang it because it is so heavy. No anchor would have held it.
