Fats you spoke too soon, I`ve emailed the guy twice to see if it works and once to confirm our arvo appointment to purchase.
No reply... I guess the saga continues.

And once again my faith in online sellers falls to the shitter.

But you got his number? Sometimes that's the only way they respond.   :(

I had an experience with a CL seller trying to buy a three tier Snap On cart for $30.  It was only through email and he was very sporadic even though I told him i could pick it up on his schedule.  Eventually the ad disappeared but even before that I knew I'd never get it.

Hardest I've ever had to work. Nice guy but a crap communicator.
It`s got a fluro tube inside that does not work. One day I`ll fix it and interrupt the light circuit with an on off switch.

I bought a Castrol oil lighted clock about a year ago. The clock nor the light worked so I got it cheap. I oiled the clock, replaced the ballast and bulb and that put it back in working order. Yours might be a ballast or bulb, or both. By the time it was all said and done I think I had about $50 in mine.

Glad to hear it came together.   Still a little miffed about the missed sale of the Olds Toronado in Denver.   I have a 15 inch round clock in the shop,  got it at a junk shop.   Think it was $15,  battery,  Perfect Circle Piston rings.
