    I saw that coil Jeff and I also wondered what the heck is that? Rumor has it that a 37 Ford Pickup used the same radiator cap as the 41 Lincoln but I havent been able to locate one. Last correct one I saw on e-bay went for $125.00.

    Hezzie Armstrong made the best reproductions of the Stant Mfg cap used on the early Zephyrs, I sure wish someone would make them again, they were perfect. I only bought one back in the day...Goes to show these small batch repros are a flash in the pan - buy while and when you can!

    Im the one who posted that listing on EBay. Somebody in Sweden bought it for 66 dollars. I Think buyers had mixed feelings about this one. The regular looking coils have sold closer to $100. Oddly this oddball tested ok, of all the coils in my late fathers collection. This is the only one like it.

    Hello again dandeman,
    I´m the guy who bought the coil and I really hope it will work out with my LC. Bought it believing it would fit and have no thoughts of the looking.
    Do you have any other parts for sale? I´d like to know though I do need some.

    Thanks
    Michael Bengtsson, Sweden

    Michael This is a very unique Ignition coil and tested good. It might possibly better than the Original type.
    If you have any issues with it let me know and I try to help you out with it. I do have other parts mostly odds and ends they are from My Dads collection. I'll continue to list them on Ebay as I'm able to sort thru them and clean them I do have lots of loose parts for the distributors though

    dandeman, the ignition coil arrived yesterday and I have to ask.. was it broken when shipped? The coil have a crack from one side to the other and one of the pin is broken. I know from before it´s almost hopeless to have the shipper to pay for any damages so I believe I have to face the facts and accept my loss.

    Thanks
    Michael

    Michael, Those coils do not ship well unless they are double boxed and well padded! Even then I've had a couple cracked and broken during shipment. I
    think the shippers actually throw those packages around and are very careless!
