My dad bought one of the last '53 WD's new, it came from the factory with a 6 volt battery ignition.

I know I am kinda wierd. But I went the other way several years ago. I traded my distributor for a good mag. I had the mag rebuilt at Buesings Iowa Generator on J. Street in Cedar Rapids Iowa. And my WD starts better and runs great.
