The Prestolite (was called "Auto-Lite" in those days) distributor changed
*very* little from the mid '50s through the late '60s in terms of physical
construction detail, so physical interchangeability on this vacuum pot is
large. On many of the distributor vacuum advance pot's cap can be removed
by unscrewing it, and the spring and spacer changed to alter the
calibration of the unit. A few of these units show up on Ebay:

Item 2478121108 (if this exact one won't work for you, it looks like the
guy has many more)

Item 7902094108
