Not sure I sent this to here, but is a Gremlin Hornet NOS clock! Bes rue to look at the 
photos one by one to see the 'timeline'

Someone asked me about a NOS Hornet/Gremlin clock and decided to send them photos of it,
as box never been opened since 1970s. This is actual photos and sometimes I am just amazed
at 'little things' such as this. Imagine my surprise to pop staple on this, unwrap it from
paper, take off plastic bag....and it started TICKING......the second hand just starter
moving, clock quietly going tick, tick, tick, almost drowning out Chef Ramsey in front
room where wife Paige watching Hell's Kitchen. There is absolutely no current to clock, it
seemed to just be happy to come out of AMC tomb it has been sealed in since 1972. No
current, just ticking away happily.

The photos were taken in rapid succession, and to me at least, was facinating to see clock
ticking away under own power. I took it in other room to show Paige and she commented
"that's nice now move out of the way @%&+!" as I guess I was blocking Chef Ramsey
screaming obscenities at his crew so Paige learned new cuss word.

I showed the clock excitedly in office to Noah & Jacob who said 'great dad, can I finish
farmville?' so guess didn't share my enthusiasm. I tried to tell them it is like 17 year
locusts we have here, they are underground 17 years, come up in July after almost 2
decades, then make lots of noise in trees for several weeks, to no avail, Jacob blurted
out 'my cakes are almost done in cafeworld, duh'. Sigh.

So yes, sometimes it is the little things.....I might end up putting one of these in the
74 Hornet Sportabout am finishing off right now as it is factory clock delete, maybe I
won't have to run a wire to fusebox.......
