Misc. STUFF

This year is truly my "purge" year in my basement. I will post things as I open tubs.

Most of this will be local only and if no response, they are GONE in a heart beat.

The two items beside the cigarette lighter are for crimping spark plugs if making your own wires, one is by MSD and the other generic, both work well.

The CB radio does come with a whip antennae, doubt much market for CB these days. We used it on our 4 x 4 trips with the 510 gang back in the 90's. Period correct if building something at any rate.

I'm pretty sure I have a selection of speedometer gears and a holder buried in there too.

The door sills just came out of my car when I put the Skillard ones in, with some patience they could be "dollyed" out. Rich did a fine job on his.

The cylinder head temp gauge could be used for anything up to 600F. It was one of my first gauges back in the 70's when running 16 lbs boost on the stock motor. I believe it is a Type "J" thermocouple, so any sort of sensor design could be attached as a probe or....

Thanks for looking.

I will take the door sills off your hands if they aren't already spoken for.

Keith, set the ignition wire terminal crimping lumps aside for me if you could.

SOLD to the young man with the Green 510! If a four pack of craft beer showed up, that would be nice.

Yes to Jason and Rob.

I will even deliver to all. Being retired has it's benefits. How is the coffee these days Rob?

On to the Nissan swag box now, not sure what is left in there. Stay tuned.....

Another post will be up in the AM, I feel like I am reliving my racing years as I go.

Morning World.

Here is another batch of things to go.

The Speedometer gears and holder, and in the box is a RED gear, I would like to get 40.00 for for everything.

I never molested the Portland poster by putting tacks in the corners, it is in very good shape, with John Morton's signature on it. I would like 50.00 for that wonderful bit of history for your garage wall.

I have 6 or 7 of those Mosport Nissan Gran Prix posters, I have the original framed so I made these smaller ones. They are for the taking.

The gauges are free too, the boost gauge has the slight chip out of the needle from slamming the stop when I ran 16 PSI on my 1800 motor.

The master cylinder is new, seems a waste, it's for a 2004 or 2005 G35...likely in the garbage.

Sun shade free too.

Nissan Map light free, has a red lens for night work and spare bulb inside battery case. A lot of this came from the wonderful Nissan sponsorship I had over the years

Magazines free, nice article on the 510 racing history by Merlin Blackwell, I will post that article up on a separate thread.

Flags, which have been used at many events, to a good home. There must be 150 feet there, not sure. I had visions once in my life to have my own garage, to have all my X race stuff up in, but, that dream has been destroyed by being priced out of the market now, nuts how real estate has gone, everything around me now 3 million dollars. This 100 year old house I live in now is at almost 2 million dollars and it is a knockdown....INSANITY. So lucky to be a caretaker here with incredible, reasonable rent for 44 years!!! My rant for the day.

A few more

The flags in use at Knox Mountain, that's Dave Christie in the photo, one of my main competitors over the years during the C-MOD wars in our 510's, great driver!

I will take the Portland poster with John Morton's signature on it.
Cheers, Jason

I'd take the speedo pinion parts. Might be nice to try and get my speedo a little closer.

Post by **bertvorgon** » 28 Mar 2022 12:14

Done for both, sent you a note Mike.

I'd love to put those flags up in my garage. Are they still available?

Post by **bertvorgon** » 09 Apr 2022 09:21

Just an FYI again, local only please, postage is stupidly costly and a hassle these days.

Mike was right, what I thought would be 5$ turned out to cost 18$. I priced out sending one of the things to CA, over 50$ due to volume size.

Anyhow, if I make 510 day I will bring those posters along for your garage wall.

Starting to pile through my old sea chest...

more stuff up for grabs or the garbage bin. Those that I have promised things for I will bring to the West Coast Nissan car show in July.
