1111499 COPO Distributor Back From The Dead

[Jerry@CHP]

No double standards Frank, this distributor is a driver condition original that the customer wanted restored if possible. Of course there would be a deduction for the condition of the housing if it were in a restoration type vehicle.

Regarding the numbers, that vacuum advance is a technically correct GM replacement and as long as it's cosmetially correct and plated correctly, full credit will apply. I don't recall that you received any deduction on one of your cars for a vacuum advance unit......have you? I don't think that anyone else received deductions in the "Legends" class for distributor vacuum advances?

I would give the guy that owns that Dist. extra points for going the extra mile for having the ORIGINAL dist restored for his car.

I get a kick out of shows were people frown on cars that have some weather parts on them even though these weathered parts are all original to the car they preside on. I take my 68 Z now and then but I am tired of people pointing out scratches,gouges and other imperfectios in a original car. I suppose I could buy a bunch of pretty parts that have been restamped and show no wear but that is not the way I remember these cars being.
