hmmm......i guess i'm not seeing the problem, except for possibly all the plastic bottles.....but i wasn't around in the 60's to know if they used plastic bottles all that much.

Did they have Armorall in 1968?

**jerry moss** · 06-23-2002, 09:49 AM

it does look newer than 68. i can't remember when armor all came out either. i was a 4th grader in 68 so i don't remember too much anymore,lol.

toms68cst · 06-23-2002, 10:03 AM

That is not 1968 vintage. Armorall did not exist then. It was Introduced in early 80's, late 70's?

When did they start using the "Goodwrench" term ? I've never seen "Goodwrench" on any true 68 sales/parts lit.

mikep · 06-23-2002, 10:20 AM

I remember armor all in at least 1975. It was proabably around before that too.

chevy2racr · 06-23-2002, 10:48 AM

it just says the part number "#68-1094 which may indicate that it was issued in 1968"

BLAZERMAN · 06-23-2002, 11:55 AM

If you go to armorall's site it say's that they started in 1966 using the name tridon [nodirt spelled backwards] then changed to rt-10 and finally armorall in 1972. I dont think G.M. started using that goodwrench symbol that's on the end of the box till sometime in the 80's.

Hey, I have three of those bottles ! I've got the Armor All , the Chrome polish, and the GM Washwax. Couldn't find any kind of date on them. I found them in an old VW that I bought. hehe. Never been used, just looking pretty.

68 Suburban · 06-23-2002, 03:50 PM

That "squirt" bottle looks like newer style than 1968.

woodrow59 · 06-23-2002, 05:49 PM

Tom saw what I saw,,,,that Goodwrench advertising on the box and the "keep that great GM feeling with genuine GM parts"

Can't find anywhere when they started that slogan but i'm pretty sure it was way after '68. The guy saw that 68 in the part number and "assumed" it was '68. You know what happens when you assume something LOL!!!!!

Just another example of buyer beware!!!

imaindianoutlaw · 06-23-2002, 06:23 PM

is the shipping $8.00 or $15.00?
