Re: 41-48 distributor
The caps, cap clips, and rotor are the only difference in a 42 21a and a 46-48 59a

The "21A-" is a 1942 distributor, commonly called a "Crab Cap" distributor. Note the two snaps to hold "crab" cap in place. Crab cap and wires below! The "59A-" is the '46-'48 Ford/Mercury distributor, commonly called a "Rabbit Ears" distributor. Essentially the same distributor as the "21A-" with a different "Rabbit Ears"-looking cap held on with a single bail....below! DD |
