Event Coverage The never ending yard sale. What the crap did I buy

Only made it about 30 miles so far
North of Gadsden

 

Got a nice set of hubcaps.
$10 each. Will clean up for nice drivers

some skirts
And a pile of NOS ignition and electrical parts

 

Where is this? I did one a multi city yard sale a couple years ago in GA with my wife and daughter called Peaches to Beaches and had a lot of fun. Found a lot of early Ford stuff and a lot of vintage tools.

 

Starts in Gadsden. About 600 miles long

 

You made my day.

 

My brother and I did it one year on the way home from the NSRA Nats in Louisville. Started where is crosses I-71 and went north to Michigan. This is the website for it:

Been there and done that and loved it! We have family in middle Tennessee and used to start around Lewis county and go south. I have found tons of cool stuff and always have a blast with my family.

 

I was south of Cincinnati end , Thursday and Friday . Found an old Harley Davidson tire pump , $5.00 . I ask the guy “ will it blow up my tire if I have a flat on the road ? “ He says “ yes used it many times .” I’m like I have to have , but it the tire is tubed and flat , It just isn’t happening with a tire pump .

 

That red 36 Dodge has been for sale forever it seems. Stayed on Marketplace a long time , guess they gave up. Can’t remember what they wanted, but it was way too much with all the rust in it…

 

Yep.
Rusting away and overpriced

 

Here’s what’s in the boxes
Cool Western Auto box with a wheel cyl.

brushes. The Marco box says “any gm starter”

condensors.
Brake light switches.
Thermostats
Starter relays, switches and a couple bendixs
Alternator regulators
Voltage regulators one is 6v positive
A couple resistors
An oddball coil
An hei coil and module
Several vacuum advances
Starter relay and “kit”
Random switches

 

Just remember, no returns on electrical components! No exchanges, no exceptions!

 

Yep. A couple of the vacuum advances are dry rotted.
The box is kinda cool though

 

Mopar 30s-40s ?

 

I love seeing old stuff like this!

 

New old stock rules!

 

Great score.
Can't buy that stuff with confidence, no more.

 

Yes.

 

What’s the rectangular silver Niehoff thing with the sort of yellow heat sink?

 

Mopar/amc ignition control

 

That is a good haul ! and it looks like no condition issues. One damp morning at a swap meet and all that stuff starts going bad.

 

Great haul, somewhere I heard the ignition components are best stored in kitchen cabinets..

 

great pile of stuff, can never have to many regulators !
