Oldsmobile engine tester kit

**** SOLD ****All original components and appears to be complete with original paperwork. See pix. The face of the box has some stains on the paint visible in the pix.
I haven't seen any that have all the testing equipment like this one.

Keep. Telling. Self. Don't. Need. More. Stuff.😬

Awful tempting. I have the cabinet (bought empty at a long-ago Carlisle) and two belt tension gages. But at age 66, it would just end up with the other neat stuff stacked in the garage, and be something else that would go cheap the day of my sale.

GLWS. Hope it finds a good home with someone who knows what it is and appreciates it.

This is like the GM Doraville plant signage a Buick friend in Georgia managed to salvage when GM closed the plant. After a few years he realized he'd never get to it and offered it to me. I wanted it some kinda bad and I even went so far as to measure the garage wall- it would have fit perfectly! And I realized I'd probably never get it installed either.

Pic of Lamar with them the day they were taken down. Wouldn't that have been the coolest thing ever? Lit up on a garage out in the middle of nowhere?


You can certainly say the same for Fred's treasure.

I used to work at Delphi Harrison Thermal back in the day. We made/shipped compressors to Doraville! I was talking to an old timer one night about the compressors we were shipping there and said to him "I wonder what Dora did to get that town named after her"? He said "Oh, yoooou knooow whaaaat she DID"! LOL! Neat sign but you'd need a good wall to place it on!
The test kit is neat and I'm sure you'll sell that rare item to someone!

I'm trying to sweet talk him out of his 68 H/O.
