    Cleaning out parts!

    Over the years I seem to have collected boxes of parts!
    Here is a list of what I have for sale - offers accepted


    Electric fan - new $10.00 - SOLD
    water recovery tank - plastic (new) from Breeze & a black metal one Metal one $10.00 Plastic $8.00 SOLD
    Willowwood 7/8 master cylinder with small plastic tank $10.00
    Pertronix Distributor w/separate coil $30.00 - SOLD
    MSD 8588 Distributor -SOLD
    No brand name distributor designed much like the Pertronix system w/separate coil $20.00 SOLD
    Front grill from Breeze - For a Mark I - Mark III never installed it $10.00 - SOLD
    Used Autoweld rear adjustable lower control arms - for shipping cost - SOLD
    FFR rear lower control arms - for shipping costs - SOLD
    Disk brakes setup for Ford Thunderbird rears and Basic ford fronts w/rotors - power coated red. $20.00 would deliver if needed - depending on distance - SOLD
    A set of rear control arm bushings - 4 of them - for shipping costs
    cleaned up front disk brake calipers from a 1990 Mustang GT with spindles and just one rotor - $20.00 SOLD
    headlights - one pair of blue dot centers and some tail lights $10.00 for the pair - SOLD
    A working HID set of head lights - worked great just as I travel a bit
    $15.00

    I went with the LED light bulbs in the headlights now. Easier to get parts while on the road! Often times I switch parts on my car to be sure I can get parts while traveling. That affect the choices I make for what parts to use. Also means I sometime collect piles of parts that I have pulled off my car - not because of a problem but solely based on available parts on the road!

    replied to each.

    I have three Distributors
    MSD 8598 - unused by me - it has a large cap so would not work with my dual carb system - SOLD
    Pertronix Flamethrower Ign II D130810 also unused by me - looks new with a new coil also
    TSP ready to run distributor with a spare small diameter cap and rotor also a one of TSP's coils
    https://www.topstreetperformance.com/products/ignition/distributors/ready-to-run-distributors/ready-to-run-ford-289-302-distributor.html

    I never installed any of them as I stumbled on a Ford Bronco distributor for a 5.0L small cap that works with my duraspark ignition module.
    As mentioned my criteria for parts is can I get a part quickly when on the road. So often pass up on performance for more of a stock part.

    These are the two distributors I have with the coils

    I also found that I have a spare unused ballast and wiring harness for the HID lights! So it comes with 3 ballast and a spare wiring harness with the relay. The HID's are BRIGHT! I recently switched over to LED light bulbs as they now sell the H4 LED bulbs to insert into a headlight housing which means on the road if I blew out a light I can just pickup a basic H4 bulb and plug it in. The HID I had wired to allow me to do the same - unplug the HID bulb and plug in a regular bulb bypassing the ballast.

    And by the way this is only one set of parts shelves. Am still cleaning up the other 2 shelves for the Traveler "Yard" Sale!

    Found on the second shelf a spare HID bulb too! So here is a pic of all the parts with the instruction book that I found too!

    The part I dislike... when I get multi people that want the same item... and I have to go by the time stamp when they say yes I want it.
    but it's my only choice to be fair

    Also keep in mind that these parts are for a Mark I and may or may not fit a Mark 4
    Like the grill is for a Mark 1-3

    Hi Ralph,

    I am looking for a set of headlight trim rings, it looks like there might be some in one of the pictures, do you by chance have a set of them you are looking to sell?
