Mallory dual point distributor. The Mallory coil is mounted on the left

W.A. is correct. We had one on an "E" gasser back in the day. Lots of spark!

The Mallory duel point distributors were popular back in the 50s and early 60s, they had a point set up similar to the early Ford helmet type distributors. Very popular with the hot rodders and race car builders with tremendous spark availability. Expensive, even back then, as I remember, not that problematic to set up. This one today is almost $500.00.

What seems to be the original Purolater oil filter & decal are worth noting. Very similar to my restored unit. Cheers

$12,000 feel like a lot for a car that seems to need a LOT of cleaning and tidying up. On a car looking neglected like this one everything is probably worn out and needs rebuilding.
