SJ Clock

Post by 88SJ » Thu May 14, 2015 10:58 am

After a few years of trying, and failing to track down an eighties SJ clock I have got a 'replacement'

Bad points;
Doesn't quite sit in dash as flush as I'd like
It's the only bit of chrome on the SJ
It's not the quietest clock in the world but I keep spraying it with lube
It illuminates green when lights are on

Good points
It tells the time
It keeps perfect time

Is the original one a digital clock with 2 buttons?

No, But is sow some for sale in the last few months.
This lot was sold for 7.0 pounds ( ebay item number :201329072619) and it had that clock .
If you contact the seller he might get back it for you.
Recently there where 2 for sale and I think that they where not sold.
I'm looking for the early model . The one with 3 buttons . That's the really hard one to find

I have a sneaky suspicion that the 3 button clock is still in the 1982 SJ that's in my Uncles Garage, i'll take a look next time i am over there and let you know!

I obviously gave up looking too early. Searched the bay for ages and saw nothing... then recently there seems to have been a few available!! Have to start searching again
