One Man's trash...

So this find isn't as cool as Tkas's airline cooler, but I love soda clocks and it only took a quick trip to the hardware store for a new ballast and an hour to clean up and rewire and it's ready to hang on the wall. Original pic looked like it was pretty torn up, but turns out it was just really dirty. Guy was cleaning out his basement and just wanted $20 to get rid of it. Has some scratches from the hands rubbing the plastic, but overall it looks pretty decent and the motor runs smooth and quiet. I count this as a great start to the weekend.

That's a nice piece of trash Brian.
It's great when you guys share your finds.
It's like watching 'Pickers' unscripted.
