Thanks for the reply.
@dsdepew Hi, they are all my storage unit in Niagara Falls, NY. I am about 20 minutes away in Canada. It sa bit of a challenge to get across and get more photos, so I will have to have someone do it for me.
The crate has not been built yet, I was waiting for the auction to close and see if the winning bidder wanted one or two shipping crate. Once crate would measure approx 55" long x 28" wide, and 28" tall. I could break that into two to make it easier to handle. I can tell you the backs of the letters are plain sheet aluminum with no rust.
Nice sign. Could you please post pics of the back(s) of the letters too. What are the dimensions of the shipping crate and weight? Thanks.
@Mlane8416 Hi........I apologize for this, and take complete responsibility as I wrote the text for the ad. I appreciate you letting me know. Also, its cool you remember the dealership. I tried to find an old photo online of it and have been unsuccessful.

Ha, people still like to insert the P in Binghamton. Having attended college there I can confidently assert there is no P. I graduated in 1989 and remember that dealership.
