D.A.M. Quick Parts

[foakes]

While I may have the largest selection of NOS & used DAM Quick parts that I know of -- now there are a lot more.

Made a major purchase of about 600 pounds of vintage, but 99% new old stock DQ parts.  28 large boxes -- 38 smaller boxes.  The larger boxes weigh around 25 pounds -- the smaller ones around 5-6 pounds.  Each envelope of numbered parts has between 25 to 300 parts in each one.  

Then there are bodies, rotors, bails, cranks, spools, etc., etc. -- basically nearly every part for every series from the earliest up through the Champions & SL's.

I really do not know what all is in here -- just started to go through this morning.  

Add this to the 60,000 other DQ parts I already had -- and it is a fairly complete inventory.
 
My first loyalty has always been to members of our Ohana -- the Alan Tani site.

So, if you need any DQ parts -- or if I have told you in the past that the rarest parts are not available -- they should be available now.

Glad to help you, if possible.

Right now, I am refilling and replenishing the parts larders according to part numbers.

Sort of like Christmas morning for me.

Best,

Fred

PS -- Also found a complete shop repair manual of Heddon schematics, part numbers, and specs.  Lots of pages -- and won't have the time to post that many.  So we will figure out how to get the information out to some of you folks that enjoy the Heddons.

More parts and collections to come...

600 more pounds of DAM Quick parts?  Fred, did you make a trip to Germany? The wonders never cease, I very seriously doubt anyone else in the world has more old stock DAM parts.

More good news with the Heddon shop repair manual.  With the help of our Heddon fans and ebay pics, we've almost solved the Heddon greenie mystery. Your schematics will be of great benefit.

Fred - I am stunned

Fred - I am stunned

Yes, I am also, Chris --

The envelopes are so old that they sometimes disintegrate as you are opening them.

Started early this morning -- only managed to get (6) of the small boxes of parts envelopes into my master small parts system of pull-out organizers -- but all of the envelopes and bags have a part number -- so that is good.  Just went out to the outer shop to get another look at the parts -- and realized that there are literally hundreds and hundreds of complete cranks.  Same for spools, bodies, rotors, knobs, and every tiny part.

Hope that some of you can use some of these parts -- because I will never be able to use 10% of them in the next 100 years.

Best,

Fred

Amazing Fred! You will have to make sure there is an understudy of some kind in the future, those parts will see out most everyone here!

Hope that some of you can use some of these parts -- because I will never be able to use 10% of them in the next 100 years.

Wow! Just Wow...

Nice haul Fred! I see you were even lucky enough to latch onto a few Zebco Cardinal parts & reels, too. Well done!
