But....here is one ..https://www.ebay.com/itm/Super-Rare...=item3b2adc16bf:g:BvUAAOSwI7ZcY4pR:rk:30:pf:0
I thought id put these in for when the eBay listings go away. They look like the same box but the tach is different and so is the asking price.
I remember Kmart parts. They also sold Kraco car stereo. There was a parts store in the same plaza that advertised any GM starter or Alt for just 19.95. That was a long time ago!
Here is a few more closed department stores that were in New Jersey. Two Guys E J Korvette Jamesway Ames Bradleys
I had forgotten Ames and Bradleys. Another sign of age.... Not a Department Store, but... Fayva (spelling?) shoe stores ......Jim
We had an Ames and when I lived in Lake Station Ind.,I remember Zayres..I remember my dad almost every weekend going to the Coast to Coast store and can't remember if the other was Western Auto or like that. Montgomery Wards was another..
I bought my first car at Grants! In second grade we had a class trip to the local Grants. We each had one dollar to spend. I bought a gold Mustang fastback Hot Wheel for $1.00. I had to use my 6 cents of milk money for the 6% tax. Those K mart tachs actually look nice. Good thing they didn't put their logo on the face. I Googled the service center address on the instructions, It's a Sears/K-mart facility, currently for sale.
Back in the 60's & 70's in South Carolina we had K- Mart, J.M. Fields, SkyCity, Roses, Woolworths, Woolco, Big K, Kress, Grants, JC Penneys, Sears and a few others that I am forgetting right now. And best of all, NO WALMART!
As late as the 90's Montgomery wards still had automotive department. They had a set of micky thompson cheater slicks marked down. Guess someone special ordered them and didn't buy them ? My dad's cruise control came from Sears. Actually made by Dana. Also voltage regulator marked Sears right on top too. Lol
In North Georgia we had Gibson’s and Roses. My little town was too small for a Kmart, we had to go 60 miles to Atlanta for one. We got both a Kmart and a WalMart in the late ‘80s. Patrick
I remember buying a Dixco tach at the Holiday station where I worked in the mid 70’s, I think I still have it.
Hah! I got you guys having flash backs. Grants use to have a restaurant in the back of all their stores. I remember them cooking hot dogs on the flat cooker. And putting butter on the buns and browning them. I had to have been 7 yrs. old . 1972. Shortly after they folded.
