Mike Gibbons one of our sponsors can have your distributor restored.

I reached out to both Jerry and Mike via e-mail and did not get a reply from either...........I decided to have my mechanic buddy who has a Sun machine install new points and dial in the advance curve, the bushings seem fine. I will clean up and paint the cast iron body along with installing a new brass contact cap and rotor when I get it back and see how that works out.

I just had mine redone by Jerry M and am happy, but if I knew someone with a Sun machine I would have gone that route too.

I've had Jerry M do a few for me over the years. In one case, I dropped-off the distributor at the post office on Monday and it was sitting on my dining room table when I got home from work the following Friday. Not a typical case I'm sure but was impressed. Here's the latest he did for my 67:

Jerry McNeish did my 69 Z-28 Distributor. He did a great job, highly recommend.
