John,
I sold the T/A about fifteen years ago. The guy I sold it to did nothing with it for about twelve years, then sold it. t went through a few hands, then ended up in with a new owner from GA who restored it.
In retrospect, I'm not sure if the car originally came with a unitized distributor. When I bought the T/A, it came with a bunch of parts the owner had purchased from another 72 T/A. The engine in the car had a bad knock, and the owner was worried that the block was bad. The crank and two rods were bad, but the block was fine.
The engine in the car was original, with the exception of having the incorrect carb and an HEI was installed. There was a unitized distributor in the parts that came with it. The seller told me the unitized distributor was the original distributor out of the car, but I never verified it.
I can probably dig up the VIN, but I don't have the PHS on it any more.
Mike
