Cool, never seen one of those. I guess the question is, does it still work?

[Kaiser]

Ah yes, Ive seen a few of these. An NOS was on fleabay a few months back. Almost got it too. Its listed as a factory option in the add on catalogue/brochure.

[elbastardo]

I dont care, look at it LOL. I dont know , I havent got it open yet.

I have had all kinds of them..................Not near as rare as the Console Clock on the Super Wagoneer and 1414X models Hmmmm I seem to have one of those sitting right here next to my monitor as well

Kinda looks like the same clock as the super wag - just recessed into the dash?

I guess the question is, does it still work?

sure does.... it tells the correct time twice a day....

Not necessarily, depending on how fast or slow it runs, it could only be right once in 24 hours, or several times in 24 hours, or all the time.

Talk to the brow, 'cause the face ain't listening.

[Crazy_Jeepman]

Sigh ..............and I was WARNED as to where this was going!! Thats just wrong!

[Ristow]

now lindel....i know you know it's always gonna be right at least twice a day.

even when it's stopped it's correct twice a day,now matter how slow it runs it will always be correct at least twice,just at different times.

I opened it up, it looks like new inside, and it does work, the electric winder works fine, and it will run for about 45 seconds and stop, if I move the hands ahead (Very Hard to do) it will run for about another 45 seconds. Making me think that a bit of cleaning and oiling in the shafts that turn the hands would fix it.

Nice find! That is one crusty Waggy. Interesting AC unit too - CUST-O-MATIC

and Pete, quit showing off that SHINEY CHROME clock or Scott may sneak over to snatch it.

Cigarette ash clog up the works? Forty five seconds huh? You must be using it to time your work on your rig.

I was just looking at 2 inch Auto Meter and Sunpro analog clocks today. Now I want one that says "Jeep" on the dial!
