    We'll turn this into a guessing game...... I'm surprised you guys have never seen these. I know at least one frequent poster knows what they are......

    DingDingDing! We've got a winner! Each piece is a template for 2 different bolt patterns.

    Just don't use a steel one to measure battery post spread. :(
    That's got me nicknamed Sparky when I worked at the gas station.

    That creeper reminds me to get mine out and sell it at my next garage sale. My belly doesn't clear the rocker panels when I'm on a creeper unless I put the car up on the lift.:rofl2:

    Just seen this...That was a great score. I have a fancy sliding one to measure bolt pattern...the tape wears off from sliding it, so I find those to be much better! :thumbs2:

    I scored a 8 piece hot wheels sizzler train set for $5.

    But passed on a 1975 matchbox army truck set for $6 (not what i collect)

    checked on e-bay they are bidding at $75 and buy now for 150 duh!
