Sun distributor machine.

I picked this up and would like any info on its operation, any literature . I dont know if it works yet but i plan on restoring it and using to curve distributors. Any leads to someone with knowledge would be appreciated.

Could check with a local engine builder, they usually re-curve distributors.

Nice score! We picked one up last year too, and it has the cabinet underneath. It spins and flashes, the gauges work on it, haven't had time to do much with it yet though.
