If you find another one I'll buy it. I'm looking for one for the GTO. I had one years ago, and stashed it away, that came with my stepdad's new 1957 Pontiac Star Chief 2 door HT. Never used and in mint condition. Somewhere along the way it disappeared.

Good score. Those old catalogs can be real handy for cross-referencing parts.

Spark plug cleaner.
You hook air to the fitting and it has a bag for sand or media , you put spark plug in hole to blast it clean of carbon or corrosion.
It has different size rubber parts for different size spark plugs. They have AC on them also.
Years ago you cleaned the plugs and put them back in.
I will take picture of back.

A different time. They used to rebuild stuff instead of replacing parts. Ex: starters, alternators, etc.
There are new parts that I have to look up the part number. Good thing I got the parts books too. Books were google back then.

Never seen a spark plug cleaner/blaster that size before.
All have been like hand-held size.
That is Cool

Would be neat to know its date of manufacture.

My Dad got one of those Borg Warner cabinets, in the later 60's in his Skelly station in Eastern Iowa.

I had one of those Monroe catalog racks. Gave it to a good friend, around 20 years ago. He was the manager of a huge truck repair shop in Oklahoma City. Could do or repair ANYTHING, a huge blessing to me in my current and prior jobs. The shop he worked at previously bought totaled 18 wheeler trucks, completelly restored/repaired them, sold them AND made money!!! Talking about straightneing frames, any ALL chassis work, incredible talent.
He passed Jan 2nd from the virus, still hurting over his passing...

We have a Champion spark plug cleaner/tester at work. I used it last week. I removed, cleaned, tested and re-installed a set of 8 spark plugs in a Lycoming IO-360 4 cyl in a Hughes 269 helicopter. It uses 2 plugs per cylinder and dual magnetos. The plugs were the Tempest brand, too!

I have one. You can buy a sequencer from Ebay and program the lights. I have mine set to 25 sec green, 5 sec yellow, 25 sec red, then just repeats. Pretty cool. I flip a wall switch and a "10' pontiac sign, traffic light, and 8' EXXON signs come on. Garage art like that is cool.

First off I am in awe of your garage that is awesome and you have some cool stuff all around. Second I had a chance to buy a Pontiac lighted arrow like you have in your garage at a swap meet. I am cheap and decided to haggle with the guy over the price and when he didnt meet my price I walked away. Of course I immediately regretted walking away so 15 minutes after walking away I went back and it was gone.
I think I will look into that sequencer for the traffic light, right now it just has two toggle switches for the light.

The traffic light you see in the first picture has the sequencer in it. The Pontiac arrow was made new with LED lights, I tried to find an original Neon sign like the "Pontiac" sign but no luck. The sequencers are cheap, I think I only paid about $15.00- $20.00 for it 10 years ago or so.
