Art & Inspiration OT....."How cool is your mailbox".....?

not that cool

 

Not mine, but i did see an "odd" one in North Carolina. It was just outside Garner, maybe on Rock Quarry road. It was a skeleton riding a chopper!!! There was also a '46 chevy sedan delivery in the yard. I should have stopped, but I had been warned about stopping at places in Johnson Co.

 

i hope its bolted down good!

 

That's too cool Mark. I don't think anyone can "post" (pun) something better than that!

 

Custom made for me by Brickster here on the HAMB

 

Around here the county snowplows would take that out in no time. It's waaaayy too cool for that!

 

thats K0000L!

 

nice, i like it.


now im gonna have to make a sweet mail box... hmm..
ive got on old banjo rear end laying around and a dead slant 6 .... yeaaaaaa.. ahhahahahaha.. *twitch*

 

lets see some flamed mailboxes

 

Denise, I know why it's in the basement and not on the post. Very good. Mine is shaped like hers but just ordinary. Black with a purple scallop covered in white pearl overlay. If I ever get caught up, I'm going to do something different. I had one with flames and it got stolen years ago. The next one won't be able to remove without a winch truck.

 

Offical USPS cast iron drop box, now resides on our back porch, hold's lots of bills & junk mail.

Isn't there a guy down the street from you with the same one? are you guys at war
to see who has the coolest mail box??

Thats going to be a tough mail box to smash with a baseball bat....damm kids!!!

 

Nope, he's got one of the later tin ones. I don't think there is a kid in the neighborhood that would venture on my porch with any kind of a weapon.

i need a new picture of mine finished.

 

Hey Royalshifter, how long did it take to convince that dude to sell that thing? I almost bought the whole house just to get the mailbox... Julie told me the guy wasn't willing to sell it.

 

mine has a white bunny rabbit and flowers...not even being a smart ass

I havent changed it out and Ive been here a year

BUT

its the only one in the neighborhood that the kids dont smash!

I guess its TOO gay and they dont wanna be the kid that gets titled "gay bunny mailbox smasher" or something

 

Basement??? Not mine, it's on the top of the fridge in the kitchen and I use it as a breadbox. I wish I could put it outside but I'm afraid it might not be there in the morning.

 

How's this for KOOL???

What about BBQ's ?????

 

Hey, I think I just spotted the same mailbox on another forum on headlights. Look in the background. Can you buy these?

 

that aluminum one w/ the louvers is cool.

 

Sure ya can
If your pockets are DEEP ENUF
That mailbox is all original stuff (Steel)
Built it 7 years ago from stuff layin around my old shop when I sold it.
Everything is for sale ain't it??? If the $$$$$ are right

 

House warming gift from a buddy of mine. Post is 4x4 tube filled with concrete, 1/4" aluminum treadplate side panels. The post has rusted up real good, and contrasts with the aluminum panels. Plasma cut flames/flag.

 

Some cool mailboxes, HRLC's is the winner so far.

Denise, surely you're not gonna put that outside are you?

It'll walk off inside 24 hours.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mines not necessarily cool, just a standard larger size white mailbox, but, it resides on a post and will spin 360* horizontally so we don't have to stand outside in the street to get the mail.
(Nowhere to run to alongside the fence and the street is a bit of a dragstrip.)

It has a simple cam setup which keeps it facing the street and is easy to spin when you want.

So far, winds up to 70 mph in town, probably 60+ at my place and the mailbox hasn't spun on it's own....

 

This is mine.

 

I treasure it too much to put it outside. It's been on the top of my fridge for two or three years now and will probably stay there for many, many more years to come. A real conversation piece when folks are standing around in the kitchen looking at the car stuff.

 

I had a nice flamed one but the kids stole it, I had the wooden post set in concrete,they sawed it off. funny story here, when i was a kid everyones mailboxes were always getting smashed,kids in cars with baseball bats hitting the posts. my dad had gotten fed up,so he took a three inch piece of solid steel rod,sunk it in concrete, and painted it to look like a flimsy post. you can guess what happened the next time a kid rode by with a bat. thats was the last of the mailbox smashings in that area

 

You win.

 

I go to the post office for my mail
