I saw an old wooden sign "No Parking Anytime" on CT-63 SB just past Rubber Ave in Naugatuck. Amazed that's been there all these years and nobody knocked it over or replaced it. Any other wooden relics still around? I wish I got a pic of it.

Still unambiguous; no need to replace. There are probably ConnDOT guidelines for obscured or missing sign parts:
Interstate:
* x1: keep
* x4: keep
* x5: keep
* 8x: keep
* 9x: ambiguous, must replace
* 2xx: keep
* 3xx: replace
* 4xx: leave up for roadgeeks to find (it's somewhere in Hartford)
* 38x: keep
* 39x: keep
* 3x4: keep
* 3x5: keep
* 6xx: keep (98% confidence level)
* xx1: replace

seriously? does such a thing exist?
Quote* 6xx: keep (98% confidence level)
I dunno about that... they both branch off I-84...
Unless the above was hinting at the cancelled I-484 in Hartford, I don't get what was meant by that.

No, that's just his pipe dream.
As far as I'm aware I-484 only ever existed on paper. The Whitehead Highway ("Capitol Area" exit off I-91) was supposed to be part of it, but if it was at one point actually signed as such that's news to me!

I have to apologize. No 484 signs exist anywhere (that I know of). Saying "4xx" was facetious, and borderline trolling. "6xx" could be 684, but chances are it's 691.

Or CT 695 gets an upgrade ;)
I was actually thinking about 491, since Kurumi's page shows it as a proposed route on the 1964 official Connecticut state map.

It's unlikely that it would be I-684, since it has no exits in Connecticut, so signage for it would be generally found on the New York side of the border. Any signs that did exist in Connecticut would have to direct drivers over the state line to get to an entrance. Also, I-684 and I-691 are somewhere about 50 miles away from each other, so it's unlikely that they'd be confused.

And NYDOT maintains all of I-684 anyway, including the piece in CT, so it's not even ConnDOT's problem.
