very fun. But do they only sell mock Fords in Grants Pass, not real ones?
 
Not so much frames, but I do have a collection of license plates. My favorite is from the Northwest Territories, which I picked up while doing site surveys on Baffin Island and Labrador. It's shaped like a Polar Bear. You can see it on the pegboard just below the RT 66 sign.

I only have one frame.
Removed from my 94 XJS donor.
Solid brass with "Jaguar" and leaper.
For sale to best offer.
 
I kept the tags, not the surrounds... all but one:
"Sewickley Porsche-Audi Alfa Romeo"
 
I take the Dealer off and give back to them. If they do not pay me to advertise for them I do not use it. Just saying

I do the same. Also, when I buy a new car (usually order exactly what I want rather than buying one off the lot) I always tell them not to put one of their decals on the rear of my car!
 
I do the same thing on the car decal thing, I also do the same thing with decals on license plates. In TN you can get military license plates but the stickers aren't put on some times when you get the plates. Every time I see the person put them on before giving me the plate, they put them on crooked or all lopsided. If your somewhat OCD, it will drive you up the wall. Plus, if they don't put them on, I don't have to scrape them off to apply my own unit sticker instead of the generic one they give you:patriot:
 
When my 1986 Audi got stolen with my initial plate PXP on it, I made my own PXP plate out of sheet metal and when the car was recovered sans plate (client called me to say he saw my plate on an old car in Jimmy's restaurant parking lot in West Haven), I drove around for a year before the MV Dept. would let me get the PXP plate back. In all that time, I was never stopped with the homemade plate.
