Re: Distributor identification
I hope this works. I've had trouble getting one photo small enough to post.
If JM 35 has never seen an aftermarket distributor of this vintage, then it has to be Ford which is a good thing. Thanks.

Re: Drum and axle compatibility
There is some possibility front and rear drums are 37 as the motor and trans are 37 (v8 60hp). In 1978 two cars could have been combined to make this one. How do I tell 37 axles from 35 or 36?
