Re: 1111480 distributor on ebay, is it an original ?
Crappy pictures to judge. I will say that the housing is missing that shiny finish that untouched one's have and the lines that are on the housing are not the same as my original 480 housing.

Those are crap pictures. If I had a real part I would be taking some real good photos to showcase it a bit. Maybe you could ask for a better close up of the #'s ??

The auction has been closed for a couple days.

Re: 1111480 distributor on ebay, is it an original ?
I will try and get that info for you this weekend. Here's a decent picture of a real 480 on Ebay right now. Notice the shine on the housing? Also look at the machine marks on the housing and the gang stamp marking in front of the first number "1":

Re: 1111480 distributor on ebay, is it an original ?
That one looks fake to me personally: 1 feedback, and just the bottom half is machined (fairly fresh). I don't trust any distributor that looks that nice after its been sitting since the "70's" on a shelf thats my .02

Re: 1111480 distributor on ebay, is it an original ?
I will post some pics of my "shelf" 480 and 2019 (no Marlin, you can't have it
 ). They have the exact same housing finish.
