Default Rebuilding a distributor

I have a good housing that I bought after ours was found to be so rusted that it's only value is as a paper weight. So I am looking to buy:


Upper plate
Lower plate
Points
Condenser
Hardware pack
Rotor
Cap
Distributor body
Coil
"Wires"


I checked prices between several vendors and I have a list compiled of who has what and their costs. And from working on old cars for years and buying from some of these vendors, I see Mac's is still higher than the others. Nice to see there are some constants in the world today.



Am I missing anything?


Later!
Mr. Ed
