Looking for a Specific Distributor

[capitalcitycars]

I'm looking for a Lucas 45d4 distributor. Anybody have one willing to sell, give, or barter. Thanks!

HI Ccc, Take a look on the "Retro Rockets" site. I was quite surprised at the prices for a new DIZZY they offer at a reasonable cost.---Fwiw---Keoke

 

[capitalcitycars]

Thanks for the site and I'll keep it in mind. But I have my heart set on a points dizzy. They only sell electronics.
I must say the prices are good though.

If you want new, I can get you one from Moss at a pretty good savings - PM me if interested.

 

[capitalcitycars]

Tony, you have a PM in regard to the Dizzy. Thanks!

 

[capitalcitycars]

Tony couldnt get one from Mo$$. Anybody else?

Have you tried the MG owners club in the UK? I believe that if you are a member of a USA MG owners club they will give you the members discount. Depends on the exchange rate of course.

Holden will rebuild them for £77.81 and it appears you pay an extra £25.00 if you don't have a core

A local club member referred me to Jeff at Advanced Distributors. I emailed him and I purchased a complete, rebuilt 43d4 Distributor w/o vacuum advance with cap, rotor for $156. He takes paypal and asks what kind of vehicle it will be in and it's usage. The club member says his work is solid. Thanks for the help!

Vinnie, the one I loaned Brian came out of one of my 1275's, and was probably originally in an MGB.

Well Carl at Retro Rockets was a bit slow getting back to me.However, for those of you that have your heart's set on points the Retro Rockets Distributors can be modified to use points.-- /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cheers.gif--Keoke
