Weston Fifth Wheel 5th Speedometer Speed Sensor For Calibration Testing on 2040-parts.com
South Lyon, Michigan, United States
|
Weston Fifth Wheel for Testing / Calibration of Speedometer, Distance, etc. Unit was used at Chrysler Engineering then at Specialty Vehicles Inc. until the past year. Specialty Vehicles used it for testing Saleen manufactured performance cars. Sensor is from the 1960's but they have not changed since then. This sensor was tested and is WORKING. It comes with quite a few brackets for attaching to back bumpers, chassis, etc. Almost always have to make an intermediate bracket. Below picture of one of these from today. They perform the same way. Technology has not changed. The B/W photo in the above is of the exact Weston unit that I am selling from the late 60's. These use a spring on the bracket to keep a down force applied to the wheel to maintain best contact with the ground. The Fifth Wheel will come packed in the original wooden crate. It will ship freight due to size weight. approx 125 # and 17" x 30" x 47" also in photos.  Applications • Speed Measurement • Acceleration Tests • Brake Tests • Stopping Distance Tests • Tire Tests • Vehicle Development This will ship through Fastenal: call them for a quote using the dimensions / weight I have listed above. I can drop off at my local Fastenal. They will ship it to the nearest one to you. Local pickup is FREE. |

Who will build the car of the future?
Fri, 11 Oct 2013The idea of self-driving cars isn't so farfetched anymore. Even our furloughed bureaucrats think so. But the question now is: whose cars?
Lexus LF-Ch – the front
Mon, 07 Sep 2009Front view of the Lexus LF-Ch (click image for bigger photo) The LF-Ch is a big deal for Lexus. They do make a very good car, but almost all are fairly uninspiring. The sporty ISs is a fairly good drive, and the IS Convertible is a decent alternative for a 4 seat drop-top as long as you don’t want to thrash the car to the edge of its limits.
First Fisker Karma in the UK auctioned for £140k
Thu, 13 Oct 2011First Fisker Karma in the UK auctioned for charity The extended range Fisker Karma arrived at last year’s Paris motor show, and now the very first Karma to arrive in the UK has been auctioned in aid of charity and raised a bid of £140,000 at the Pratham UK Gala held at Camden’s Roundhouse. The altruism demonstrated by offering appealing cars for charity auctions is to be commended, especially from a young - and relatively impoverished - outfit like Henrik Fisker’s eponymous company. Yes, there’s a bit of publicity to be garnered for the Karma, but good on Henrik for offering up the first Karma to charity.
