Think the rust started after a burst of buck shot hit the sign? I can almost see a pattern in that rust.

I saw that one.  It's even too crappy for me.

Wow, there's more rust on that than there is sign! $40, not for me, but there might be some desperate sign collector out there that might be a taker for this.

It's in better condition than a Morris Marina at least...

Not being in the UK I had no clue what a Morris Marina is/was. So a Google search found this info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_Marina

For a car that is called one of the worst ever they sure sold a lot of them.

Tom, I only wish! I am just a big General Telephone / Automatic Electric fan...  I would have loved to work in the PhoneMart!

Yeah, but that was back in the 70's, they're all pretty much piles of red dust now... :P

Another. These don't bring much in perfect condition (unless it has the '21 bell).
