Red Ball Rally and swap meet - Gilbert

Unread post by rickf » August 25th, 2023, 1:44 pm

Who is going and what will people be looking for? I will be in spot R5 back close to the showers and rest rooms. (convenient!) Look for yellow box trailer. I will have a mix of M-151 stuff and some other oddball stuff you probably have not seen for a long time if ever. I have several 151 gas tanks, I brought three last year and none sold so I am not bringing more than one of each this year. One early and one later A2. Unless someone specifically speaks up for one the rest stay home. I have many radio trays that again I brought last year but did not sell. These are heavy so if nobody wants them I will only bring a couple. I have the disc brake conversion plans and jigs to do the conversion and all the cad drawings. I also have quite a few brake calipers and rotors and I think backing plates. I will only sell this as a complete deal. I own the rights to the design which goes with the rest of all the parts. If you are interested in this then contact me by PM at least a couple weeks before the show. Keep in mind if I get jammed up due to weather or anything else the show stuff comes first.

Anybody looking for an A1 gas tank? With or without pump. Will be bringing one, maybe two to Gilbert.

I have a complete fording kit and also a complete arctic heater still in the boxes. If anyone is interested I will bring them but if nobody speaks up they stay home, too big and bulky to bring for a low chance of sale.

Last year I had a lot of people asking for things I had at home but did not bring. I cannot bring everything so if there is something you are looking for speak up. Shipping is extremely expensive and it is going up every few months. Some bigger and heavier stuff it is just not worth trying to ship anymore, the cost of packing and shipping generally costs more than the price of the item sold or adds so much to it that people just don't want to pay it anymore so to the scapyard it goes. I am disabled and I have a hard enough time getting myself around, I cannot drag several thousand lbs. of stuff to the shows anymore unless I have a guaranteed and paid for sale for it.
I have a bunch of pics of the stuff in my shed that is available. A lot of the smaller stuff will be going with me and a couple radio trays and antenna brackets but not as many as last year. Most of the stuff in the pics is available for sale, a few things are not and will be noted when I post the pics.

Some of the stuff I will be bringing. The belts, water pump and goggles are not coming and the distributors I have to go through to see what I actually have. I believe that is the lot I got with the gear on the bottom which is on there 45 degrees off. It needs to come off and be reindexed and put back on. If that is the case I will not be bringing them since I can sell them for a lot more in usable condition. Everything else I see in the pics is pretty much going in the trailer. There will be more from my other shed and stuff from this one that is not in the pics.

This will probably be the last addition to this thread since there has been no interest in it. I have two cylinder heads for the 151, both light duty and both in need of complete rework. If someone is interested make me an offer and I will bring them. Otherwise they go to the scrap yard next trip.

Last call on the complete fording kit and arctic heater kit. Unless I feel really energetic this stuff is not going since nobody has said anything about wanting it.
