Nice car! You should be able to sell the distributor setup for enough money to do the change back to multi-coil. I would drive the car as is for a while before changing things just so you will have a good basis for a comparison. before you change make sure the magneto is up to snuff because that is the power that makes a T run well.

Yes, always good advice to know EXACTLY what you have before you modify it, if it is not destined for a complete teardown. This one will stay pretty much the way it is other than upholstery, I have the bows and irons for the top so I will put it on top on it.

I will order a Magneto Meter to test the magneto first.

Looking for a list of components and wiring diagram for the conversion.
