I got a chuckle out of seeing the Accel Supercoil bolted to the firewall on a car with a unitized ignition. The guy probably bought that coil, bolted it up, and then went to hook up the main coil wire to the dist cap and discovered there was no place on the top of the distributor to plug it into!

Should only take around 100 grand to get it to perfect shape. ;-)
