Re: Made in USA original style points
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, But the NAPA points are NOT actually Made In USA. They are made by Standard in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has a US Zip code so they can get away with it. Look at the address on the box it is the same for Standard, Ecshlin, Napa, CARQUEST ,and others. When they moved operations to Puerto Rico about 6 years ago they had major problems with quality. I had about 6 sets of points that were junk. I bought points from CARQUEST, Napa, Mac's, Yesteryear Ford, and Snyders, they were all from the same source. After talking to an engineer at Standard he looked into the problems I pointed out. A few weeks later he sent me 12 sets for free. I gave up rebuilding distributors for other people as I could not Guarantee the quality of the parts.
