Ed, I had a similar sounding problem with a '59 Chrysler. I did these things: 1. Take a lock cylinder out of the door and have a locksmith make a key for it. It should fit your ignition. 2. I fought the distributor for a long time until I realized that the points pivot was frozen. Even though the points opened and closed, it was only because the arm was bending. After I took the plate off and freed up the pivot, it ran just fine. Good luck, Joe Savard Lake Orion, MI |
