[Chrysler300] dual point distributor

["Rick Ehrmann" <tc440@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Happy Fourth everyone! Mine was really nice, until the ride home. My kids and I were in the parade with the K in Takoma Park, Md. We got through that fine. But on the way home the car started to run rough and made a loud backfire that blew out and bent both mufflers. I flat bedded the car home. I took off the distributor cap and found the problem. The ground wire (is this the primary lead?) that runs from a rivet in the breaker plate to the condensor mounting screw was broken off.

The car has the 413 HP single 4 barrel setup with the Prestolite dual point distributor. My 64 parts book lists the whole replacement assembly as 2444 363, but does not list a part number for the broken wire (lead). Does anyone know what this part number is or where I can get this lead?

Thanks,
Rick Ehrmann
