    Can I pick these condensers up from auto parts stores ? If so what do I ask for ? Just one rated at .30 ? Sorry for my ignorance on this stuff .. Trying to find parts have been fruitless . Seems most online stores parts list only go back around 1957 or so . I would like to find points if there out there . Do you just replace the contacts or the whole arm ?

    Tubs that video was a video of a video so the sound might be off a bit . How do you modify the laminations to make that coil work ?
    You mean like stack plates together to extend the mounting hole spacing on each side ? What material would be used to make laminates or would you use a solid conductor on each side ?

    So those laminates can be removed from the coil without destroying the coil ?
    I will place an add in the classified section first to see if I can find the right one to start with .. Then go from there ..

    No luck so far finding an original coil . I made a short vid of the spark I’m getting with the one I have . Does this look sufficient .
    I am beginning to wonder if my problem may be elsewhere .. https://youtu.be/6IR6QbDXsEM

    Looks like nice fat spark to me.

    Prepare to be boarded!
