Hi Mike,
Figured out the coil. Had never paid attention to the steering wheel and
door pulls, of course we have only had the brochure 40 years <BG> Just goes
to show how seriously we took what was in the sales brochure's back then.

Bob,
I meant early engines, not earky
engines. If you look at the interior shot of the car in that 1958

a cord door release... ala Triumph.

That chrome tube/can that runs along side
the valve cover is the coil mounted
on the generator on the earky engines.
