I have a 1961 :D 283 with a Autolite Distributor. Does anyone know where to get a replacement?

If you're looking for originality and want to replace Autolite with Autolite I would contact member Jim Staib (Dr Rot). If you are not looking to retain originality and just want it to run then any GM small block V8 distributor without vacuum advance will work.
