Fellow brothers;

As I sit around at home recuperating from shoulder surgery, I have a lot of time on my hands and I came across this, It had "Buy Me" written all over it. It will be one of Andy's Christmas presents, NOS from 1971. He will need it in the coming years to maintain the Gott Boy's ever increasing fleet.

Mom ended up in the hospital over the holiday, with a bout of congestive heart failure. I brought her home on Wednesday. Mailed the check off yesterday.

It is a tune up kit from National Tech Schools. It came with all the test booklets and answer cards you would send back to the company from your home schooling. The kit includes a compression tester, egr tester, dwell tach, ignition tester , vac gauge, volt/amp gauge, timing light, remoter starter. New in the box.

Wow, sorry to hear about your Mom. We went through that with my Dad.

On the kit -- that's pretty neat! It will make for a cool display (unless, of course, you want to actually *use* it ... wink ) Does the school still exist ... can he still get those cards graded?? smile

Looks like they filed for chapter 11 in 1992. They were founded in 1905
