That will span more than 15 minutes. That is really neat to have a sign for sale knowing that that car is yours yours.

That's awesome! I've seen that before and never realized it was your car. Did you buy a dozen or so?

No, but I did get a couple of the signs (different shots) and had the photographer sign them for me.

Here is a link to her Gallery (http://www.lindabermanphotography.co...1992&k=4VpX6pQ) Lots of cool stuff in all the Galleries.
