I don't know what the zoning regulations are where you live, but putting a 21-foot Muffler Man in the front yard might strain relations with my local muncipality, if not my neighbors. But, if you can get around both of those obstacles, and come up with some long green, a classic roadside Muffler Man, now being auctioned on eBay, could be in your future.

The starting bid for the fiberglas "big guy" is $10,000.

This particular model, created by the International Fiberglass company of Venice, CA appeared to be painted to look like a vaguley amish young man, sans beard, not surprising, as the auction is based in the eastern portion of Pennsylvania.
