1950's German Navy Ships Compass - 25+ Pounds - Highly Accurate - Priced 2 Sell on 2040-parts.com
Coupeville, Washington, United States
|
I found this gem at an estate sale of a retired ships captain who no longer wanted to keep it. He told me that it was off a German naval Ship but could not remember the name. It's dated to the early 1950's and is highly accurate as I tested North with a couple of other compasses that I had laying around. The thing weighs over 22 pounds alone and with packing it should go at 25+ pounds. Solid brass circling the dial face and normal scraping to the body. Comes with a canopy cover [ I guess for night time ] and priced 2 sell. Thanks for viewing and good luck. P.S. shipping will be charged a flat rate of $75.00 based on the weight and includes insurance.

Toyota GT86 TRD (2013) first pictures and details
Fri, 08 Feb 2013Toyota's performance arm TRD (stop sniggering, it stands for Toyota Racing Development) has breathed on the GT86 coupe. The GT86 TRD, of which just 250 examples are UK-bound, gets a subtle bodykit, bigger wheels, a tuned exhaust and a couple of badging trinkets, but crucially, no extra power from the 2.0-litre boxer engine. A mistake, given that the price is up by £6500?
Saab back online as NEVS rebuilds the Saab Brand

The plan is to build a range of electric cars in Trollhattan and China, initially based on the Saab 9-3 platform but eventually developing the Phoenix platform in to the basis for Saab’s future.
