Dear Forum Members,
I have found myself to be in a dire financial position and have decided I have to sell alot of my inventory FAST! I have some pictures of these but am just posting descriptions now and will send pics to interested buyers.
Included in my dad's inventory are:
Brake Stuff: 25 Master Cylinders, 55-60 wheel cyl. & clutch slave cyls., 3 'chicken boxes?' wheel cyl. kits, 2 'chicken' boxes mstr cyl. kits, 1 chkn box bulk parts for wheel & mstr cyl., 2 deep chkn boxes of flex brake hoses (approx. 100 ea.), 1 med. box of 'Lees' brake hrdwr(approx. 45 kits), bonded brake shoes (NORS-approx 125 axle sets), brake lining reline sets-Western Auto (approx. 65 axle sets), Used brake drums & cores for rebuilding wheel & mstr. cyls. & several boxes of pistons, boots, springs, etc.;
Speedos:There is a LONG list(about 4 handwritten pages!) of speedometers, rebuilding items, Stewart Warner blue & yellow compartment cabinet with all parts in drawers, 1 5 drawer stack type cab. w/small compartment drawers and pull-out tray. Full of real small parts-screws, hair springs, drive gears for both speedo heads & transmissions, small clips, retainers, bushings, washers, number wheels and shafts for rebuilding number sets-ALL Makes-thousands of parts. 2 Stewart Warner calibrators- 1 like new and VERY accurate, the other is minus head but used for 'run-ins', resetting & testing numbers sets & saves wear & tear on final cal., wood tray with spec. rebuilding tools & cable adapters for mounting to calibrator & for 'in-car' srvc., special staking & forming tools for building custom drive cables & reduction boxes. One sm. 3 drwr. cabinet w/pointers, & small parts. A lot of good used-but alot of NOS later models (60's & up-all makes, no foreign); Three 'toilet tissue' size boxes w/45-50 NOS AC Service units-(head, face, pointer) all in numbered boxes, some have id's on box, mostly GM but some Ford & Mopar, may have 2 for vettes but think I sold those. There are boxes more of glass bezels & face plates, 10-15 baby jars w/small parts & some Mopar & Stewart number sets-all NOS-very few used. There are also boxes of loose speedometers for older cars, I have posted a few on here in the past for id'ing so letme know if you want pics.
Carbs: I have about 30-40 carbs (maybe more!), carb cores, and carb parts that are not identified. Some of these are pretty old and I have not identified them yet.
Trim: There are about six bundled sets of trim i do not know what they are for. all in good shape. no pics yet but will try if anyone is interested in trim parts.
Radios: There are about 20 vintage radios and some newer(60-70's), there are also tubes, knobs etc. for rebuilding radios-I know nothing about radios buy I know that some of these are VERY valuable.
Miscellaneous: There are bread boxes galore of door & trunk handle sets, knobs for lighters, radios, door handles, etc. One bread box of just gas & radiator caps, a rolling bread stand of about six trays of miscellaneous chrome parts.
Bumpers: I have a very small trailer loaded with bumpers but don't have a picture yet-(my camera is in the shop).
Honestly, there are so many things I just don't have space to list them. This post is already too long. Obviously, location is key for anyone wanting to inspect the inventory personally-I am located between Austin & San Antonio, TX. This is a great opportunity for anyone that buys lots for picking & choosing and then selling the rest at swap meets. I need to raise about $5000. by the end of this week, so have contacted my local car club but wanted to give everyone here a chance to jump on something they may want. If you have any questions you can PM me here and I will respond privately with a phone number.
PLEASE, PLEASE! Do
not respond or post with requests for individual parts right now. I just don't have time to search for that kind of stuff!
Thanks everyone for helping ID some of these things but I have just found myself in a dire situation and have to unload enough to keep the bank from foreclosing on my 5 acres of pastureland...

Thanks!!!
