Cleaned up the reflector and some of the metal components on my OV10. Was gonna restore the text on the nameplate too but I misplaced my jar of model paint.

Took my LPS NEMA down and removed everything from the pole, preparing it to be dug up.

@subway5411, I'm well aware of that motivation mode, incandescent streetlights here are disappearing due to cheap LEDs. I plan to make a brochure explaining how dire it is to keep them, maybe I'll do it to some MV towns too.

Good idea, although it is basically inevitable that they will be replaced with LED, especially if they do a bulk purchase.
I’d be more motivated with saving as many fixtures as possible, personally.

Luckily with those, you can screw a filament LED in the existing fixtures.

Got some photos of some lights in my area, including some that I fear will not be around for long.

Stood my light pole back up in it's new home, hung an MV security light, and hooked temporary power (extension cord) up so I could get it lit up.
