I found a set of "new in the box" Snap-On inductive ammeters on Ebay, one for measuring starting system current, and the other for charging systems. No wires to disconnect, just hold the meter next to a wire with the current flowing. The box in the picture looks like it's survived a hurricane or three, but the gauges look brand new. For the princely sum of 30 bucks, I'll take a chance!

Why would anyone care? It's already sold to you. Can you copy out the photo from the listing?

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Photo is ok listing is not. As Kevin says just crop out everything but the picture. Or wait until they arrive and take your own photos.

Nice buy Jerry! Looks like they come up for sale every now and again. Anyone can check the previous sales just by putting an item name in the search box and look for the "sold items" check box in the "Show Only" section on the left hand side of the page.

I thought you were talking about tools, Jerry. Not auto gingerbread.
I guess they're "tools" in some way.
