Hey everyone, been a while since I've posted anything and figured it was time to start sharing a few new things I've picked up. Found this ECO air meter at an estate sale a few weeks ago, when they opened the doors there were around 150 people in line so i figured I didn't have much chance of getting it. But to my surprise when i went around back and rounded the corner of the barn there it was, priced at $50!!! This was a nice bonus for me as i had bought another air meter off of eBay in December for a grand and the seller ripped me off by not sending the unit, i did however get my back from eBay after a long wait. Brought it home and hooked it up to the air compressor and it worked perfectly.
Thanks,
Robert
A great piece! I remember taking my bicycle around the corner to the nearby Mom and Pop store for air. I loved cranking the handle because of the ringing sound it made. Thanks for posting it.
$50 ??!! How do you sleep at night! LOL what a great find!
Nice find. When I was young every station had one outside and they were free to use 24/7. Now you pay for air. They guy would pump your gas, check your oil, clean the windows and check the air in your tires.....all for free. Funniest story I ever heard about one of these was a lady from Europe who wanted the wind in her tires changed. She wanted the winter air out and summer air in. She actually wanted to have her snow tires removed and the summer tires put on. I guess that was a few years ago.
Oh-la-la!!
Wish I could stumble upon one of these!!!!
Sweet find, and 50.00 bucks make it that much sweeter.
That is a great find. Gas and oil items seem to be worth their weight in silver.
