My neighbor across the street gave me this. He said that he got it from a Dealer ship that was going out of business in the 70's. It is a large meral donzi sign. The letters and emblem are also embossed into the metal. http://www.donzi.net/photos/sign.jpg

From a neighbor, across the street! How coincidental is that? Very nice Scot. Bet even Donzi doesn't have one of those.

Scott,
Cool sign. Perhaps, one could use it as a mold for a really cool FRP motor hatch.

STYX, nice jacket, I saw one similar on EBAY once, that picture is nicer than the one I saw...
Very Nice.

And that sign... Mr Pearson you would be a tough opponent bidding I can tell. :)
Not sure what I would do with it though!

I have one of those signs, brand new still in the
wraper. I was going to put it on e-bay, But I will
consider offers on here first. It is the exact same one as above, but new.

Bryan Tuvell 33ZX
03-31-2002, 07:58 PM
This could get interesting and fun! Although only a few of us have a desire for it (I am only a litttle interested), more will jump on board will be my guess.
HP500-22, lets have an auction and give 10% to Scot V! Or set a price and sell it hear.

Mr Pearson you may get your wish.
Bryan

HP 600SC
03-31-2002, 08:16 PM
I would gladly agree to 10% to the board......
seller pays shipping if it sells. Do I hear
an opening bid?

The sign measures 32" wide by 40" high.
Lets see.....a Donzi dealer clock with the same logo 16" wide by 24" high, illuminated from behind
with 2 flouresant tube light's (clock not working)
but it is a common type clock motor. (not new but very nice). A couple of Donzi liscense plates
from the late 70's and every one there after to date. A red Donzi race team jacket like the one that was on e-bay (new). A few old style Donzi dealer banners. And some other stuff that was pulled from the dumpster.

04-01-2002, 08:19 PM

04-01-2002, 08:28 PM
HP, tell me about the jacket? Size.... Please say XL. If so let do a deal!
Or should I say bid!
New thought L would be okay too, Nancy's birthday is the 25th!
We need the bigger sizes since were tall.

Nancy got the 14K Donzi pendant for Christmas from Len.
This would be a nice addition for one of us.

Thanks, Bryan

HP 600SC
04-01-2002, 08:42 PM
Bryan, yes it is an XL, here is a photo of the back...the same logo is on the front left side
about the size of a 50 cent piece. http://www.donzi.net/photos/jacket.jpg
I need to put a reserve price on this fine collectors item of $125.00 + shipping.

Hey Ted. Is that a Classic on the wall next to the clock? Looks good and would make a great Poker Hand winner trophy that would have to be returned after a year on the winners den wall at AOTH III, IV, V, etc. Is there anyone else who used to work for Donzi with a bunch of this stuff like you have? Who made those jackets for Donzi? Would be very cool to own a blue one.

Scott Pearson
04-02-2002, 06:39 AM

Forrest

Hay, look what I found, and its brand new never worn! Size Large. Sorry Bryan, I need XL too.

http://www.donzi.net/photos/Forrest_J1.jpg

It's the slick red-nylon material with silver and black embordery, lined in white flannel material, with the small logo on the front - just like the one CDMA bought from Ted. Looks great with a GOLD Rolex Submariner.

I'll do this one like Ted did his. Bidding starts at $125.00 plus shipping with 20% of the proceeds going to DONZI.net. Ends around 9:00pm EST tonight.

OK, LARGE will be fine for Nancy, her birthday is the 25th... that is a bit steep, but the 20% to Scot V for his efforts make it a worthy price.
I guess the 2nd lab prop is on hold for this month.
Forrest, you coming to visit this summer?
I bid $125
