Nos Sun Tachometer Transmitter Nhra Gasser 1932 Ford Hot Rod Dash Panel/tach/cup on 2040-parts.com
Portland, Oregon, US
Here is a vintage original Sun tachometer transmitter for use with the separate tach gauge heads. The guy I got it from told me he bought it brand new back in the day, but never used it. It does appear to be NOS (new old stock), with no indictions of ever being mounted. The tag reads: Model EB-1A, VOLTS: 6. CYLINDERS: 8. The interior looks really clean (there are no batteries inside). The overall condition is excellent, surviving the years well with no original packaging. The bakelite cover, graphics and tag all look very nice. These can be updated with newer electronics to eliminate the need for the original batteries, but I have no way to properly test it so it's being sold as-is. It would be perfect for a period correct look on a hot rod roadster, dry lakes racer, rail dragster, custom, or any other vintage old school ride. NO RESERVE. Please see my other auctions for more VINTAGE HOT ROD PARTS AND MEMORABILIA to be listed shortly. Thanks for looking, Chris.
*AFTER THE AUCTION IS OVER, PLEASE WAIT FOR THE INVOICE TO BE SENT BEFORE PAYING SO I CAN CALCULATE THE CORRECT SHIPPING COSTS.
*I WILL STILL ACCEPT ANY FORMS OF PAYMENT AS ALLOWED BY EBAY.
*TO SAVE ON SHIPPING COSTS I WILL COMBINE AUCTION WINS (WHEN POSSIBLE), BUT I DO ASK THAT PAYMENT BE SENT ASAP ON THE FIRST INVOICE AND ANY CHANGES WITH COMBINED SHIPPING COSTS WILL BE MADE ON SUBSEQUENT INVOICES.
** I apologize for the following "fine print". I never bothered with this previously, but due to ebay's changes, it has now become a necessary evil:
- SHIPPING: Ebay now requires the shipping calculator to be included in all auctions. Please be aware that although the costs listed will in most instances be basically correct, these are not always accurate. Any significant differences up or down will be adjusted on the invoice. The shipping costs listed here are estimates only (not always including the insurance/delivery confirmation costs), as I do not package items until after the auction ends. DUE TO PAYPAL'S POLICIES, I NOW REQUIRE INSURANCE ON ALL PACKAGES VALUED OVER $25.00 (AND DELIVERY CONFIRMATION ON ALL USPS PACKAGES), AS WELL AS DELIVERY SIGNATURES ON ALL PACKAGES VALUED AT $250.00 AND HIGHER. THESE WILL BE ADDED WITH THE SHIPPING COSTS ON THE INVOICE.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS:
Please be aware that although both USPS first class and priority shipping may be listed in the calculator, all packages valued over $25 will need to be insured and only priority packages can be sent with insurance coverage. First class shipping is less expensive, and I will try to ship at the best rate possible, but often times the more expensive priority rate is the only one available when insurance coverage is needed.Gauges for Sale

Ferrari California: photos with roof up
Thu, 29 May 2008By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 29 May 2008 15:57 The latest Ferrari California photos and details have just been released by the Prancing Horse. It’s the first time we've seen the California with its folding hard-top erected, and extra snippets of information - like the size of the 2+2 - have now been announced. Its 4560mm length puts the California midway between an Aston Martin V8 Vantage and DB9, while the Ferrari’s 1900mm width means it is wider than both Brits.
MG SV returns, TF founders
Tue, 15 Apr 2008By Keith Adams (additional reporting by Russell Gowers) Motor Industry 15 April 2008 10:14 In the latest twist of the MG Rover saga, and three years after the original MG XPower SV supercar went out of production, the controversial coupe has made a surprise re-appearance. However, the likelihood of us ever seeing the reborn TF roadster seems to be receding by the week.Now known as the XPower WR, the Qvale Mangusta-based supercar has been eased back into production by William Riley – a descendant of the creators of the historic car company bearing the same name.His company, known as MG Sports and Racing Europe Limited, produces the supercharged WR, selling it for between £75,000 and £90,000 depending in specification. The rights to the car – and its badge – were bought from MG Rover administrators PricewaterhouseCoopers in 2005.
