Interesting vintage photos- I had not seen those.
I tried last night to post photos from the provamo website, not sure it is possible, but will try again.
Can you tell from the photo in the book that was scanned if the spark plug wires say autolite and "radio resistance" as per correct Ford wiring of the time?
