Here's a GM Parts Mr. Goodwrench dealership clock that I don't see very often, especially in very nice condition. It's high quality, with all AC-powered operation, including the clock and the circular florescent lamp inside. So, no batteries. I'm thinking the vintage on this nifty ad clock is the mid-to-later 1970's, but I welcome anyone's input with more specific dating.
I've had this GM Mr. Goodwrench clock in my personal collection for nearly 40 years. It is in excellent condition. Please disregard any reflections in the face. It measures 14" in diameter and is 5-1/4" high. I would note that the clock I'm selling is COMPLETE with the round, clear plastic lens that covers the clock face. These are very fragile, and are usually long gone in most examples of this particular GM Parts Mr. Goodwrench clock.
Because of the more expensive, all AC-powered operation and the large three-dimensional design, I'm thinking this was an expensive clock to begin with. So, perhaps not many were ordered by the GM dealership parts managers back in the day. That might explain why this clock is much more seldom-seen than other cheaper, battery-powered Mr. Goodwrench clocks.
The clock motor is quiet. There are no cracks or chips anywhere on the clock, and it lights up as it should. You will never have to upgrade this clock in your collection. I believe it will be hard to find a better example.
The price is $375, plus the shipping. Thanks for looking. John
