WTB - 1928/29/30 Buick: Delco Remy 640 Distributor + Generator

[30Henderson]

Hi everyone,

 

I have a 1926 Buick (model: 26/40) that has the distributor frozen solid to the generator. Seems to be a common problem because the original distributor is pot metal. I am now looking for a Delco Remy 640 distributor from a 28/29/30 Buick (series 40) that is supposed to be a drop in replacements made out of STEEL. 

 

All Delco 640x distributors will work. The x could be an A thru Z.

 

I am also looking for the 28/29/30 Delco generator that I can rebuild while at it ....

 

Any lead or help is highly appreciated !!!

 

Thanks

Marc

Marc, 

    I have a generator, but not the distributor if you are interested.  I believe the generator is a 940.     Hugh

This is a 640 A distributor.  It is clean inside under the breaker plate and the shaft does not wobble.  $100.00 plus shipping in a medium flat rate box  to allow for lots of packing.$17.10.

 

If you want the points, they are $8.00 per set.  

 

I do not have the condenser, rotor, or cap.  You can get then at the auto parts store.  Ask for late 1940's Chevy parts.
