Please help. I acquired these Atwater Kent distributor systems in a trade and was led to believe that they were worth somewhat more than I am asking here. Am I "out to lunch" on my pricing or is it just the wrong time of the year to be selling these? Obviously I know nothing about them other than they all appear to be in excellent condition. Don't be shy as I really don't want to gouge anyone, especially on this great site, so just need to know if I'm unintentionally overpricing these parts. Thanks : Bruce

Bruce,
I purchased an Atwater Kent front plate earlier this year to rebuild as it needs work. I paid $125. Remember mine needs work.

Thanks Kim : Is your's the one from Matt that replaces the timer and mounts on the original Ford timing cover? The ones I have are mounted on a special Atwater Kent plate made to house their distributor . Thanks again for your response.
