22 year old M1 10-30 case I forgot I had

[tig1]

I was looking for some stain and found this old M1 case I purchase in about 1990 or so.

Interesting: About what did it cost you back then?

Sell it on eBay, collectors will buy it.

Awesome. Was it just the box? No oil?

 

[MrQuackers]

I'd buy that for a dollar!

Exactly what I thinking. That would be something expensive to misplace.

Exactly what I was thinking. It would be the pao formulation,before visom.
I think I'd use it. Just put it in the trunk of your car for a week to shake the bottles up really good.
Great score.

Sounds like just the box. Bummer.


Remember when the X-box first came out? Ebay auctions were selling an "X-box box".

I remember Mobil 1 was always $3.99 when it was the only synthetic you could get at the big box stores. All dino was under a $1 back then.

No oil. I had used the box for paint supplies and it was in an old cabinet I rarely get into.

When I first started using M1 in 1978 it was $5 a qt. Over time it started coming down in price. I Could only buy M1 by the case at a local parts store at the time I bought this batch( around 1990) and I believe it was about $3.30 a qt.

that's too bad...would be a neat voa

 

[2James1]

From what I remember when I first started buying Mobil 1 in 2007 it was $22.00 for the 5 quart jug at walmart. Now it is $22.47.
