Folks, we went over his car this morning, he had corrosion on various electrical contacts and if I recall correctly, the wires to and from the replacement ignition switch were reversed. I think there is correct power to the distributor but the car needs re-timing and we ran into that persistent Model "A" problem where the hand crank won't engage correctly with the crank ratchet nut.
