Hey OZ, Have you made any money yet???? I believe here in the States it is actually illegal to own one, just as it is illegal to own a stop sign or any road sign. As they are "Public Property" and therefore owned by the municipalities/local government. I wouldn't panic to much though. I've been in possesion of a Stop Sign for several years, as it leans against my shop in plain sight. They haven't hauled me in,,,,,,,,,,yet! JTS 71 Mach1
PS It looks really good.

That's pretty cool and makes a great addition to a garage or man cave.

Not a cent
I don't think they are illegal to own. I think the seller bought them from an auction You can purchase roadsigns etc here from scrap yards and sign manufacturers but probably best to keep the invoice in case anybody questions where they came from.

Did another one recently so have two now.
Had a little accident during the process dropped the brake assembly (nearly 9 kg) on my big toe and I was only wearing my chinese safety boots Looked pretty horrible, lost the nail after a month. I won't post any photos of the toe, might make you sick
