Actually the o-ring didn't come in to around 1953.

I've seen that picture before.

Ebay

I just sold that distributor for $300, so $999 is a bit of a markup.

With a o-ring.


I'd like to see one with a o-ring and a early date code.

Thanks Glenn . I even got the correct one :D

As far as the non-o ring vs o ring... they look identical from the outside. Bosch did update the insides a bit and I like the later ones better.

Unless you are a nut about "correct" it doesn't really matter from a cosmetic and performance point of view.

When i doubt... ask for the date code.

10F makes it October 1950 manufacture.
