Definitely a recurring theme with these nut jobs. Always some kind of pre-production option or prototypical part of the vehicle.

I'm thinking with that generator that it may have been the property of the A.V. Roe company. Makers of the Avro Arrow jet that ruled the skies for the brief time it was flown. If it had the provenance that it was used nearby while they were building the plane here in Toronto then it could actually have some value. Just not the value of a nice house.

Not only an air compressor, but a generator too.

Very tempting indeed. Not much needed to get that one back on the road.

Not Craigslist, but Hemmings. What is "$7000 airplane paint"? and will it make it go faster?

Its a catch phrase that makes a painter an extra $5000+ in profits on a paint job.

Since the asking price is $5,000 it doesn't really matter. Seems like a decent buy.

Ad also implies it was used in the movie Get Shorty.
Saw that movie before, and it was good, but don't remember a 69 Pontiac...
Going to have to watch it again now.
