Collectible car prices have been shooting through the roof over the last few years. And if you need any proof of that, witness the astronomical amount of money that a 1959 Impala sold for or the more recent and even more astonishing one-million dollar selling price of the “Eleanor” movie Mustang. Even car-related collectibles such as gas pumps and period road signs have begun to skyrocket in price over the last decade or so.
There is one thing that is still very reasonably priced to collect, though, and that is vintage automotive stickers. And nothing looks more cool than a tool box covered in vintage stickers of car parts, race tracks or auto makers. It doesn’t matter whether you are a clean freak and keep your tool chest white-glove-test neat, or if it’s a jumble of wrenches and calipers strewn haphazard from one end of the drawer to another, having a handful of vintage logos decorating the top, sides, back and front of your box of implements can make it look very cool.
It looked like someone else agreed with us, because while scanning the ‘net we found this collection of links to places you can buy vintage automotive-related stickers on Petrolicious. We also selected a few of our favorites currently found on eBay, and listed them below, so if you are like us and love the look of anything classic-car related, and don’t want to break the bank to get it, you can start creating you own collection of hot rodding stickers today!
