Great work on this my friend. I enjoyed it. Good memories. Beat of my knowledge, all of the Sears auto centers are still operational in the Atlanta GA area..
Wow still lights and the die hard decal there!! Cool! Daamn that's a real nice view of the garage bay! That old office looks extra creepy. Interesting video man.
EndlessReprieve I couldn't believe it myself! I'm surprised I was able to get such a good view inside of the garage doors. Yeah, the office and rental business were creepy.
In my experience, the Auto center usually does close before the Sears it is associated with. I'm currently trying to keep a running tally of all Sears closings near me because I have a 2 year warranty on work done in May 2017 and our Auto center is due to close any day now. I was told it would by late March, but I think it's still open.
North side of the building was an appliance repair and parts store that I believe was associated with Sears I got my lawnmower repaired there a couple times before I started doing it myself
Worked in that bldg in the late 80's in college. Part of the bldg was used to repair appliances. The narrow office shown towards the middle of the video was their Maintenance Agreement sales center where I worked. HATED that job!!!
Was that weird looking mounting thing around time 5:03 perhaps for some kind of industrial machinery? Perhaps a compressor, tank for used oil, Air Conditioner, Shop Vacuum, or something related to the shop? I noticed the electrical panel nearby. I don't think dumpsters use that type of mounting as they are moveable and get dumped.
Stephen Hinkle It could have been a trash compactor. I've seen at a couple of other places similar mounting on the ground with the compactor still there.
the sears auto center in eastgate ohio was being used as shopping center now they relly fixed up like its brand new its been closed since 2009 it took untill 2016 some to used it
John Uhlig when we closed it became 100 percent the owners of the malls issues... if you look at the back side garage door where the one panel is popped out that is where I almost fell off the 30 yard dumpster we used to help clean this out
5:28 wondering what all the Barrel lock key switches were for? seems kind of extream for an alarm system. . . unless they had a switch to disconnect each alarm sensor for each individual area.... 6:40 would be funny if they had a sticker on the door that said " PREMISES PROTECTED BY WASP SECURITY SYSTEMS INC" HA HA you rock as always Dude :)
DUSTERDUDE238 I used to work in this store that was for the fuel pump long before the auto center closed and I made sure that place was locked up like fort Knox in the main room with all the paper they used that as a boscos training and hiring area
