To all who replied... and you know who you are   <GRIN>,

Shoer re-cap...
The engine in the beast is a 1275cc of unknown ancestry -- fake 
engine number stamped into the block!!
The carbs 'might' have come from a Mini...
The current dizzy has a top entry red capped dual point but has no 
vacuum advance, no labels and no ID numbers on it !! 

The 25D4 dizzy I have has the numbers "40767 F" and "12 69" stamped 
on it... The shaft has no play, it has good points and the dog is 
good.  But it was designed for use with an 848cc engine...

I can get a Cardone remanucatured dizzy from Autozone for $82 but I 
don't know if it's any good or even if it has the dog gear fitted!!

So, after reading everybodies replies, my question now is;  Should I 
just forget about it and get the correct dizzy?? Or should I get this 
one rebuilt??

Your advice would be of great value.. 

Two hail storms yesterday!! Current temp 22*F... I'm not going into 
the garage today!!
