I think Atlas may have been brand sold in old Standard Oil service stations. I believe these parts are from the early 1970s. Box says "Made in USA".

I don't have official parts reference so please verify with your sources that this is the right part number for your model and year car.  Since my books only go up to 1976 it may very well be for other models and years too but can't confirm that. There seems to be a lot of notes regarding using replacement numbers and dates produced, and not sure what the difference is in the different numbers. If you would like more photos let me know and I will be glad to send them. I also have some other ball joints that do not have the silver piece that may be the replacement for 802 and can send you photos of them if you would like to compare. 

Email me with any questions or if you would like additional photos. The photo you are seeing is actual part being sold. WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). You will need to supply notes/bolts. If I find any, will include. Part is new and has not been installed - there may be some surface rust and the box is old and dirty and not in very good shape. May not include box but will be securely packed. 

Will combine shipping on ball joints. Please wait for me to send invoice with updated shipping charges.

Payment due within three days of end of auction.
