Today I aquired the long awaited casting which sits inbetween the distributor and the engine block on Freida the Ferguson.

It came with half of an old original lucas distributor which I hastely removed to be replaced with the Duccellier which I took off my Land Rover.

I wire wheeled the casting up to remove decades of paint and grime, I then gave the inside a smear of grease and fitted the Duccellier  in it.

I’ll wait for a dry day before I fit it to Freida along with all the other ignition parts and give her a good static timing session.
