opinions of stamp on a 480 distributor, thanks

Unfortunately a restamp. That one went thru one of the big rebuilders who use steel shot to clean their parts before rebuilding. That's why it's so rough at the cap retaining area. I just sold one here and if the purchaser wants to put up the pics you will see the differences.

That thing has been on a strict diet, much thinner now! LOL

Thanks for all the comments. I got this with a parts lot sale. I thought it was a repro, just wanted to check with the experts. What are people paying for a re-stamp like this, for someone who just wants the numbers and cant afford a real one. Thanks.

Personally, I wouldn't put a re-stamp like that, or any other one for that matter on my car. It detracts from any originality you might have if you care. I'm not a purist as I like day 2, but the pic you posted screams at people who know what they're looking at. I was being nice in my original post... I'd rather take a real dizzy from even a Cadillac or something that is factory correct looking, just the wrong number. I have my 1111498 on my born with motor in the corner and an 1111500 with a Pertronix III that I run on my play motor. Unless you used a mirror and knew the correct number, you'd never know it wasn't my original dizzy.
