The 40 year old Veeter-Root Computer,that in time will eventually function,as I hook up an electric motor drive to simulate the gas flow.I can't wait to hear that Bell chime out once the digits accelerate.

Chrome plating cleaned up well,with Original used scarce Sunoco Fuel Filters still in place underneath cover.As far as I can tell,it was used until 1981,then stored away out of commission at Effingham Il. Sunoco..They took darn good care of it!

"Check Your oil & washer fluid too sir?"
I removed the adhesive Vinyl Blue SUNLITE door decals,as I learned they were originally applied over the original face after 1971.I was surprised to find the near Virgin color scheme protected very well from the elements.
The Original Keys came with it,as did the parts/repair manual.
