Hmmm, sheet welded over the door to keep it from folding? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Glad it was saved and is back up in the air. Wonder if he put it out by the highway.

MAPCO Minnie.
Grew up driving by her on 94. I actually stopped at MAPCO once many many years ago to ask about the car. I was told then that there was VERY little left up there other than the general outline from body panels. And this was like 30 years ago. |

The first digit is 4. Followed by a 7. I can't make out the rest of the numbers. |

Was almost thinking it might have been a sign to advertise something. |

New owner said it will be about 10 or 12 feet in the air. May have to visit in a few weeks! |

As has been said, it was MAPCO. So… it was advertisement. I saw it a lot as I went to the UofM.
My eyes are not what they once were, but I believe John is correct. I see a 4 and a 7… (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
