Hi everyone. I'm glad to be a member of H.A.M.B. Does anyone know what make and year that Kong Jackson used for the rotor and distributor cap on his Flathead Ford distributor? Thanks for any info. you may have. Flathead Mike
I was trolling the H.A.M.B. Site, looking to find Traditional Period Hot Rod Parts for my 33 Ford Hi-Boy Roadster. But, I think it was a 1930/31 Lincoln V/8 Autolite IGL-4001a Cap & Rotor. I’d wish someone would step up & Reproduce the Original Kong Distributor. Best Regards Respectfully BigDTexasKid. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

An about 10 more.. my dad inspired & influences were due to him working for FoMoCo at the Dallas, Tx. Assembly Plant. For 4 Years, I had my school class, to go to a Field Trip. there’s nothing like it. To see your dad working on the assembly Line with your classmates & Teacher! I kinda got off base of the Subject. I wanted a Traditional Rod like my dads 2-1936 Ford Cabriolet’s & his 1933 2-Door Chop Sedan, 1951 Ford Convertible... etc, I want a Go Fast Lakes Rod...
