Lucas coil
 

The kind that have the threads and sockets for the leads as used with the Noise Suppression cables for the Lucas military distributor.

I intend to gut it and use the shell to hide a modern coil.

If you have a dead coil, even bashed or rusty, let me know.

:bang:
82 people have read my post and no one has a Lucas coil to sell me???

Maybe hard to find Jim.

Do you have a picture of the housing ? Is this the coil housing with the braided coil wire crimped into the housing W/steel cap to cover the terminals ?

Well do you have a picture ?

Jim,
Putting a coil inside another casing is likely to cause it to overheat and breakdown, sometimes reliability overrides originality.

Hi Jim,

Did you find something suitable ?
If not, let me know I have a spare one.

Cheers,

Danny

Thanks Danny! I have one from ebay coming... Let's see what I end up with, and I may have to check with you.

I can use a dead coil, as I would gut it and wire up a modern one inside, Just have to be aware of the heat issue as Richard warns.
