    Mystery part #93 is the special screw to hold the engine/hood stay.

    Looks like Dave included a few unrelated treasures with the Dino.

    I think mystery part 7 is part of the quarterlight bottom bracket

    The unrelated treasures are actually part of an aftermarket system that I had fabricated for the car but never installed. Many, but not all of them.

    Lemme go back and I'll give those #'s to you. I'm back: 1-4 are part of the mystery aftermarket one off system that I had made, by one of the sponsors here. He'd never made one before like this, and I'm guessing he'll never make another one.

    Mystery part number 5 has been asked about on several occasions here. A bunch of guys would be interested in acquiring that part for a template, I'm sure.

    I'm guessing part#6 is a windshield wiper motor? Anyone?

    I think it's a window motor without the gearbox.

    #92 looks like the lead that goes from the alternator to the fuseblock on the firewall.

    1 and 4 look like a cam or crank timing disk and sensor for an electronic ignition. A box would do the advance curve and distributor would just steer spark to right cylinder. Or box would drive multiple coils.

    Part 1 - Might the Mag sensor represent a transducer (pick up) for a flywheel or pulley timing encoder (magnetic encoder) or for the points replacement (looks too large to fit into the distributor cap).

    Part 2 - The preceding picture (Bar 1) might be an timing advance system on the intake manifold for the same electronic timing conversion.

    Part 3 is the magnetic pickup amplifier

    Part 4 is the encoder wheel to go on the pulley or flywheel.

    Part 5 is the bracket to carry the magnetic sensor in close proximity to part 4

    Parts 6 and 7, as mentioned, represent a window motor and the friction adjustment for the quarter window.

    Part 9 looks like a radiator fan motor, but is somewhat different from factory original.

    Part 91 looks like the fan off the alternator pulley.

    Parts 92 and 93 already mentioned, wire from alternator to firewall fuse block and trunk lid strut screw.

    Bonus part is a closeup of the distributor

    Ummm... only found one coil, used, that was hooked to a cooling-finned ignition gizmo.

    I organized and categorized every object; nothing like that. I posted pics of the things I was not sure of.

    BTW, what was the cryptic message on the alternator?

    Uro,

    No idea what the cryptic message is, it predates me.

    No one got part #5.

    Here's a clue.

    It mounts on the exterior of the car.

    I can ask my mechanic what EAR BEST CAN HERE means.

    Oh, and the six pot coil was in it's own white corrugated box. It should have been inthe same bag as the rest of those parts.

    If not, might be in the POD!!!
