Just out of curiosity,,, I have a similar script sign without any neon remaining... Would you give some kind of price range to have it repaired? Thanks, John

$1800-3000 you need to have someone look at it.

Great piece! I've always wanted a few Ford neon signs, but with 3 kids to feed and Model A's & old Harleys to buy parts for, there ain't much money left over....

Looks to be a Mullholland from the late 30s early 40s?

What a gem! Some years ago a local Model A parts dealer gave me the neon pieces of a Ford script , oval sign because they were broken. He said it came from a Lincoln.Mercury dealer here in town. I took it to a local neon business to get a price to repair it. The fellow was really excited to work with it. The script was broken in three pieces so he repaired that and said it would be easier to just replace the oval. He did all that and included a transformer for $125. I mounted it on a plywood board painted Ford blue, now I just have to get the white lettering done. Looks good just as it is though.

Here's mine. Double-sided Mulholland Sign Co. that spent it's life in front of Fred Sayre Motor Sales in Ripley, WV. The other sign hung in the showroom window of the same dealership. Both were given to me many years ago by Mr. Sayre and proudly reside in my garage today.

This Sign came from a old Ford Dealership in Amelia VA. The Building is still there and used as a Bar now.
