@ Jonesy, ..Hello, ..yes, my joystick problems have been resolved, only by cutting new ones out on the machine lathe, ..I checked around everyplace I could to find these, ..near to impossible it seems to find an exact replacement, ..other than switching to newer styled stick units, I really wanted the originals, so , that is what I did on mine. The springs, were an easy fix, NAPA auto had the exact springs there, but I went with a slightly larger o.d. on the coil, that made them a little stiffer to move, but not bad. Sticks are back in and working good. Thanks OFF, and Willie59 on your inputs , next thing I think I may need is a cap and rotor, points and condenser, getting I little tough to start. Good luck on your rebuild, these things are only getting older and tougher to get things for. G
