I've got one on my '69. It works great. I don't seem to be fiddling
with the points every few thousand miles which leaves time for other things,
like 60 hour work weeks. :-<

The seals are non-replaceable. I replaced both of mine with rebuilts
about 2 years ago and one of them is now leaking. Best bet is to stay
out of potholes. That's how I blew mine.

Those critters are rare indeed. Seems to be we should be able to
find another (non original) switch to fit the panel opening. Anyone else have
some pointers?
