'67 W30 Distributor - Restored
'67 W30 Distributor - nice and restored:
>1111151 6K17 date code - Supercars Unlimited's 442 By The Numbers book calls this the "late" '67 W30 distributor. It is not a UHV distributor.....it uses points, etc.
> Completely dis-assembled and cleaned/degreased THOROUGHLY (there are some areas in these distributors that hold old hardened up grease and you have to know where to clean to get all the old stuff out).
>Shaft is nice...not wobbly, etc. Bushings are in great condition with no oblong wear that can occur on highly worn units
>Steel parts cleaned, aluminum body beadblasted and lightly polished to give a more natural/original finish
>Inside body of distributor below points plate is grey catalyzed gloss epoxy to seal off the bare aluminum surface
>New felt shaft washer and plastic retainer cap (under points plate), grease wells packed with high quality high temp grease....grease wells THOROUGHLY cleaned (along with the rest of the dist) prior to regreasing.
>Points wire is new with good copper terminal ends.
>New O ring (where dist goes into the block).
>Cam drive gear in great condition - I will install the correct pin in the gear once sold or leave it uninstalled if you prefer.
>Refinished vacuum advance can - stripped, epoxy primed and painted to emulate zinc finish. Vacuum tested and it works fine. NEW VACUUM ADVANCE CAN available at extra cost.
>New rotor - NAPA Echlin high quality with brass tab and extended tip
>NEW high quality NAPA/Echlin cap with BRASS contacts available at extra cost (not in pics)
>Will install points cam oiler/wick setup (not in pics)
>Some of the lower portions of the PN and date stamping are not as heavily stamped as the upper part due to the slight cast-in "ledge" on the outside perimeter of the housing. I carefully etched the bottom portions of the PN stamping so they weren't as lightly stamped looking
>There was a cast in "boss"/"appendage" on the perimeter/body near the PN stamping that was removed.....it was a rectangular section that somewhat protruded out a bit (probably a leftover slight casting "tab" where they break off the excess material).
$500 + shipping
ADD: $18 for new vacuum advance unit (I will include the original as well)
ADD: $20 for NAPA high quality dist cap
