Trying to avoid sitting in the rush hour go-home traffic, I swung in Northern Tool, just to cruise the aisles. I'd rather look at cheap Chinese tools than the bumper of the car ahead of me....
I did need some more WD-40 for my garage door. They had a two pack on sale for 6.99. When I picked up the can(s), one was the familiar blue/yellow can. The other was "generic" in appearance; yellow with black block lettering stating "WD-40" I read the wrapper around the cans, apparently it's their anniversary and they are bundling a modern can with the original can (or course both have the product inside). They text on the wrapper says they started in 1953 and WD-40 was originally developed to prevent corrosion on Atlas missles. Didn't know that.
Hey ! My Willys is 1953 !! I can toss it in the tool bag with the other old tools I have !!
Now my 1953 Willys will have a 1953 can of WD-40.
Yep, it's the little things that make me
