pgb123 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I have a 1924 Gardner touring car with a Lycoming, 4 cylinder engine, nbr CE7525. I am looking for a Westinghouse distributor body, type JN series. I am in need of the steering spark controls and rod. Similar steering wheel, controls, and column were used on Hupmobiles, Reos, Any help would be appreciated- thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldsoul58 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Hi I have a model jn westinghouse distributor body from a 1923-1925 Hupmobile that I would like $100. for but the bad news is try to find a distributor cap and points for is near next to impossible. The last ones I saw in Hershey the guy wanted $650. for them. Needless to say they stayed there. I did find a Massey Ferguson 4 cyl. distributor model #Y1 type A that with very little machine work it fits like a glove onto my oil pump shaft. There is also a late 40s to early 50s Jeep 4 cyl distributor that works. Hope this helps you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgb123 Posted July 4, 2023 Author Share Posted July 4, 2023 Hello Oldsoul58, I am working on a 1924 hupmobile and did not know the Westinghouse distributors were interchangable. Do you have thet hupmobile distributor for sale? I will look into the Massey Ferguson distributor as well. Do you know what model jeep distributor will fit. I found a 4 cylinder Westinghouse on ebay that I was able to salvage to make a good distributor. I came across the hupmobile recently and it is a barn find that I can not wait to start on this month. You appear to have a lot of experience on old cars, especially to come up with other distributors. Thank you for your h elp Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACK M Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 I don't have a dog in this fight, but there is a Jeep supplier that sells the 4 cyl distributer, new repop. Probably made offshore. A google search should find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgb123 Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 Hi Jack M, I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. We went through a family situation that took up a lot of time and we were very distracted. I am asking if you still have the distributor body and how to pay for it. I really could use the part. thanks Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
