Here are two different styles of Mopar chronometers. The left is the type that mechanically turns drums with the numbers on them. The one on the right is a solid state version with LED numbers. I want to make use of them as garage cave clocks. The electrical hook up for the one on the left is...

As an aside, remember when the horizontal and vertical adjustments on a television set were almost used as much as the channel selector and volume control?

For some reason, the photos wouldn’t load on my phone. I tried on my pad, it worked

My biggest hobby, after my RT, is antique and vintage tube and transistor radios. When I saw this radio, I thought it was oddly unusual and cool. Since I bought it, I have been on the lookout at garage and Estate Sales for an appropriate slide for it. A few days ago I came across one I thought...

Another coin holder from NBD and a DAV mini plate from 1959

The bottle of LX-521 additive tickles my funny bone. The first thing that I find a little odd is the amateurish label. The claimed 10% to 30% increased gasoline mileage is a little hard to swallow. Then there is the mixing ratio. 1 tablespoon for 15 gallons of gas. Wow! This stuff sure must be...

A can of Mobil cylinder oil, some Goodyear glue, monkey grip patches from Kmart, some lens tissues from the shatterproof glass corporation, Kenmore oil, and some merchandise certificates from Erickson oil, in Hudson, Wisconsin, good until December 31, 1957

A 6 foot Uniroyal tape measure. A Monkey Wards Riverside tube repair kit.

I came across this package of seatbelt reels. It amazes me how much of this type of stuff lays around for 60+ years unused and unopened. The instructions are dated 1963. As you can see this package was priced by the manufacturer at $3.95. It looks like the store Hand stamped their price of $2.79...

Thanks to all!!!

Every letter the DAV sent out contained a pair of the mini plates. You can see the instructions on the backs of the four plates, Guaranteeing postage. The story I heard is that in 1968, because of the donations dwindling, instead of sending the plates out to millions of people for that year, the...

Most of my keychains have been previously shown as part of this thread. I have cobbled together some display boards for them. Every keychain on these boards has one or two original Mopar keys on them. Almost every keychain on the Hodges board has some relation to Mopar

Now that I am looking closely at some of them that I have, they do not all have cereal numbers included. So, going back to my original guess, they must have gotten the addresses of the key owners from the license plate number.

Here are some of the back designs

I just realized taking these pictures that I am mistaken about how lost keys were returned. I was always under the impression that they would get the keys back to you by using the license plate number. But that is probably privileged information that the DMV wouldn’t give out. I just noticed...

They came from the DAV. If you lost your keys, and the finder dropped them in a post box, they would be returned to you. In some agreement between USPS, the DAV, and the DMV they worked to return them by using the license plate number, which was your actual number. My year is exceptionally...

I found these keychains that are meant to allow you to fold your key into. The one from the bar is the first time I realized that if you drill a hole into the head of the key, the whole key will then fit into the holder. I have added some vintage keychain items. Both of them must be from the...

I just noticed that the key has been heavily modified. Half of the area above where the peaks and valleys are, was ground down.

I came across these two items at the flea market today. I have a couple other similar spare key holders, but this is the first one that came with the fake cardboard key. The key is mysterious to me. It has on it DPCD, so it is obviously has some connection to Mopar. On the other side, you can...

I find the sales listed on a site called Estatesales.net. My two main interests are radios and Mopar items. I just look at all the pictures for nearby sales.
