Martian Gil Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I love it - I think the non-typical clock face (numbers) give it a great look. Yes, it's a clock, but the face also lends itself to more of a meter function. Very cool piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
target Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Ozzie I think you bought that from Joe Morabito/Main Street Toys. He had it there forever ,I think originally $3500. I guess he has a new home ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roboz Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yes it's from Main St , the piece is 26 1/2 inches tons of detailing & a mind numbing amount of rivets this seems like it took a long time to create I have other angles of anyone wants to see just LMK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Oz, is it made of metal or wood? Do the treads actually work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roboz Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hey Robert , it's mainly wood , with metal & some plastic ( clock cover etc ) don't know what those rivets are, treads are glued in place so it doesn't roll : ( The teal color is so 50's like it could be in a diner, I've always believed Teal should have been used as a color in the 50's especially a teal gang member to go with the lavender Maybe a few of those green/blue colors like the sonsco spaceman get close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
