Hi Mike,
1. I completely dissembled my '65 1500 and have all the dash gauges in
a shoebox.
I don't remember finding voltage regulator any where behind the dash,
I don't think they use one.
As you know this model had individual gauges for everthing and the
loom justs plugs into each gauge.
The factory manual is no help either.
The wiring diag. refers to a "combination gauge" which is not what the
'65 1500 was fitted with.
Are all the gauges flutuating in unison or what?
2. I did the opposite to you, I spent some minutes trying to UNDO that
cam adjuster so I could get it plated. DOH!
Can't help there, maybe someone out there has a spare backing
plate????
Failing that, take all the bits to a welding shop and they may just be
able to fix him up.
I know I could but I'm on the opposite side of our current planet.
Regards,
Graeme Suckling

Subject: 65 1500 questions
Dear list:
I'm working on a 65 1500 referred by the local nissan dealer. I have 2
questions:
1. The gaugues are fluctuating, and I can't find the gauge voltage
regulator. Any Ideas where it is located?
Not in the usual location near the steering column bracket.
2. An errant mechanic broke one of the front brake adjusters (guess
who).
Anyone know here they can be located? Didn't realize they work on a
cam basis,
different than the later model rear adjusters that screw completely in
and
out.
Its a great little car, in complete original condition. All knobs,
gauges,
trim pieces appear to be original. The car has a great ride and more
power
than many 1600's I've driven.
Thanks
