^^^Neat, but fake^^^

I agree but how can you tell for sure? The image looks odd but the finish looks real old and chipped and some rust etc. :?

Here's how I know Red. The sign has what appears to be a 64-67 Bus, with a cogwheel / swaztika logo, which was used around world war 2. The style of the bus on the sign didn't come out until 30 years later. Neat sign none the less.

Yes, it is clear to me now that it is a fake. I saw it for sale on ebay and lots of people are bidding on it! I went to see the sellers other items and they are all the same. And he is getting a ton of bids for his fakes! If you look at his feedback only a couple people gave negative comments telling about the item being fake. I wonder how he makes them? :x

Reproduction sign + hammer + salt water + oxygen = vintage.

To be partially fair I see no actual claim of antiquity in the ad.

I don't think that many VW folk would be fooled by a bus sign with a KdF-era logo! Even I saw that right away.
