WOW John I didn't know that I hung out with the rich and famous back then. Had access to a portable unit and now and then got to use an actual machine where you could set dwell, advance curve, everything. Usually reserved that access for race car distributor. Like you I bought my first one in probably 62 or 63 still have it also have a premium unit from mac tools that I bought later the only thing that they have been used for in years is carb adjustment and not very much for that. Two years ago a guy had an auction and sold all of the old stuff he had traded in and never resold. He had four distributor machines in operating condition but I had a previous commitment and couldn't go figured they would bring to much money anyway. To make a long story short very few people showed up and one guy bought all four machines for ten dollars. But if I would have went they probably would have sold for mega bucks. I guess I didn't need one anyway.
