That looks like a true factory 5 pin box to me based on what I have been finding.

Black surround for the electrical plug, ink stamped numbers on the face next to it, Gold heat sink with secondary engrave around it, with an RCA transistor cap.

The only thing I can’t see is the decal on the side.

LOL think Daves is the oddity winner for sure!

Those guys have several hundred thousand dollar rides that are worth even more if they have it correct. To them, it’s an investment more than anything elsr

Uhm read back a bit.

None at all. This is that potting I was talking about though.

Already tried. Lol. I think im missing some posts, as in they literally aren’t showing up.

Great example of a replacement part also forgot what the original number was supposed to be.

I like that...."approved parts" THe box almost looks Mopar and it "replaces" a Mopar part number.

And the pentastar is 6 point.

Basically how does any one know unless you have all of Mopars percurment books what is exact what.

Semi opaque urethane. Interesting that it has a TRW transistor in it.

Since the box says “replaces” it makes me wonder what year it was made as a replacement for factory stock. That also not a Chrysler logo on the box it came in. Chrysler is a pentastar...that’s a 6 sided logo.

Not surprised it doesn’t have the Chrysler sticker on the side.

Ahh yeah that I can understand.

Yep, you sent me a bunch of them. That’s how I recognized the box immediately.

I get Mopar replacement distribs in at times now they get screwy, not in any book number is usually one off from the Gloven? list, say for 1965 and the date code will be say 48/9. Happens a lot on prestolight the right part number date code is way off ahead a few years. Prestolight has their own rules. Have a rack of books just for them. Does it make it right for a points car since it is a factory replacement part???????

One of those boxes is in the first wall hanger collection I did...

 

[halifaxhops]

Tim give you that bag I gave him for you?

Yep, I got them...thanks!

Still collecting frame boxes to put them in. Have enough now to do two or three of them, just need the frame boxes. I steal the jigsaw puzzle boxes from my wife but she hasn’t done any lately. Winter is her season to do them, so I will get some soon.

That's a cool display.

 

[halifaxhops]

Think I have most of the Mopar distributor mysteries cracked except that big two digit number that is sometimes stamped above the cast part number/date code. Still no idea get them in on occasion.

Hoppys junk Daves Treasure!

 

[Ddaddy]

I really like the last one I did. Turned out well, I think.

 

[halifaxhops]

You will love it when I get into the Holley boxes pretty cool.

That is cool. I may need to copy cat that I like it so much.Filko a man after my own heart. Sold that early in my parts store career. Top quality stuff. Then we picked up Standard Ignition. Not as good.
