Berts has the best prices. I have to wait till after the holidays to spend any money on the car. I'm probably going to get a new housing from berts, a new upper plate, lower plate and screw kit. I have doubles of all the other parts. I need to spend about 100 to get a second distributor built and replace the missing shielded cable. Funny thing, I made a cart of all the parts needed to assemble a distributor and it totals 135 at berts. kinda surprising as the others sell a old style distributor for 179 and a modern plate one for around 150 I don't see the price difference between the modern plate prices and the originals. And it only takes a few minutes to assemble those parts.

Thanks for the offer chrs196815 I want to get a new housing though as I have all other new parts. And have kept my spares. Glad I did as the points in it were ford script.
