Check out my latest find

I saw these on Craigslist and just had to have them. I collect old tools, vending machines and signs. They kind of add a cool factor to the old garage. And they're very nostalgic.

Those are cool. We picked up a Sun 404 distributor machine a few weeks ago... I want an on-car diagnostic engine tester next.

Very cool Tom. I remember back in High School we got a brand new Sun unit
like the one you just picked up. It was my Junior year & 2nd go round for auto
mechanics class when there were electives to chose from. I really enjoyed those
years and learned a lot from them. To bad all the hands on classes are just about
gone from the H/S curriculum nowadays. Congrats and enjoy!

I have an Atlas distributor machine. It's complete but needs gone thru. I'd love to learn how to use it.

Wow, that Atlas Distributor Tester is something. Last saw one of those in a local Esso station.

A friend of mine has an Atlas Engine Analyzer AMA-9 that he's looking to sell. How much are those things worth? Thanks.

There not worth much but they are way cool.
I'd give as much as $250.00. A little more if it's a Sun
