Champion Spark Plug Tester/Cleaner

I saw this while playing on Craig's List. Looked like it might be of interest to members here.

A name-brand accessory that was probably found in thousands of garages doing repairs in the 1950's. Small footprint, decent original paint, a patina of use, what's not to-like? The price?

I usually don't take it as a good sign when the price isn't mentioned in the ad, but I think $75 is probably reasonable. If it was closer, I might be tempted. It would be a good companion to a period roll-around battery charger/tester.

My Dad had one in his service station from 1957 til it burned in 1968.

If you are serious about cleaning plugs, get one of these. You can put it away on a shelf when you're done.
