Those gates look extremely long? Could that be a "car hauler"? And what does the sinage say?
Thanks Thomas

I think one is just laid against the other (and not right on top of it).

I thought that at first, but I think those gates are really long.

Good luck - this looks more like an exercise in saving logos.

the signage says hardware store and on gates it says heat and water which I assume is plumbing supplies if you add it all together, not sure how its gonna go really as there is so little left. time will tell I guess, there is a few more to do in front of it so I will form a plan. am doing a 60 single for my wife and have a couple of other bits to do before I start this
