Setting the points on a 54 Oval
Good picture for detail

Is that a radio suppressor (silver cylinder) to the right of the regulator?

Cleaning up a '54 motor I had sitting and while glassing the tin noticed that the 3 and 4 cylinder top tins had been double stamped? Maybe a mixup at the stamp machine?
