Window Sticker - How Have You Kept It ?

[Bikeman315]

There was a thread about this about a year ago. I decided to go ahead and frame it. I liked it then and I still do.

Birth certificate is useful as a proof of identification, so yeah keep it. That window sticker is not.

I've gone through a few rounds of throwing out stuff in my life. I used to hate to part with sentimental stuff, but now I Marie Kondo that crap and only keep the things that really matter. If I'm not going to put something out on display, and its not something functional I'm actually going to need later, why keep it around? I'd gladly pay to replace a small item or two over a few years than tote around a room full of stuff on the off chance I might someday need it but probably won't ever need.

This was relevant to Mustangs when I had to pay to buy someone else's suitcase midpipe resonator for my GT because I threw that out when putting in a midpipe, and later decided I wanted to go a different route on my exhaust. I'm ok with paying the $50 to replace it because I didn't have to store that junk, and it wasn't looking like I'd ever need it again.

For tools and smaller spare parts, and raw materials, sure I'm going to keep some of that so I have things on-hand, but I try to be honest with myself about needing those Miata or Ducati parts when I sold those vehicles years ago and am driving a Mustang (or some higher horsepower car TBD) for the foreseeable future.

Somewhere I still have specialized Hodaka tools ................

Mine is filed up somewhere with my other papers. And I have a PDF copy too.

I still have my window sticker from my 93 LX 5.0 5 speed Calypso Green I bought new in May, 1994. I have it framed with the original bill of sale. Always save a window sticker. The next owner may want it. At a minimum fold it up and place in the glove box.

Simple frame, hung in the garage. Special ordered mine and worked hard to get it, so feels good to look at it.

Folded in the glove box.

I have it in PDF form. I'm old and forget stuff easily, so it helps me recall what options are on the car. It may help when selling, too.

In a folder labeled "Mustang" in my filing cabinet, along with other related records and receipts.

I have my mine framed and hanging along side my Mustang posters. I've kept all my window stickers along with a brochure of the car

Thanks for all the replies, especially for those who have taken time to post photos

@Chef jpd - you have given me an idea. Our window stickers (UK car) have a bit of a plain area on them :

But after seeing those box frames of yours and considering I have the grill emblem from the car (swapped to black before purchase) and the 5.0 badges will be swapped as soon as I finally get it home ...

A colour coded box frame, with the pony and a 5.0 badge mounted within it on the plain parts of the sticker.

Might suggest it as a Christmas idea from the kids ...

Cheers,

WD
