I tried the dizzy guru and he only deals with the older cast iron ones and rockauto says they have it but when I got check out it says part number such and such is no longer available and has been removed for your shopping cart. is there a place I can take this vacuum can into to get it rebuilt? I need to get my car back on the road

Search member Glenn. He is the distributor guru. He is often on the 68 and up forum. He will sell you what you need or steer you straight.

This is my barn find! Found it last summer (2011). Wife suggested I pick it up. I paid $200 for it. The guy helped me get it out. Phoenix AZ heat, two tires that didn't hold air, and the other two only for a few hours. We installed two tires from my Super to get it out of the back yard and onto a trailer.

It was last registered in the mid 80s!

Ouch, they had mine in, in 2 days. You might try O'Rielly's, or NAPA then.

If you can't find 1 in the classifieds, you might try ordering 1 from Autozone. I think they're only about 55 bucks. I'd order it up for a 70 though, as it'll have a better advance curve.

I think the vacuum can will work fine. I recently swapped mine out for the "correct" one and I noticed no change in engine performance.
