I  recently purchased a '72 GT6 (drove it home from Ozark, MO Saturday) and   
need some advice/info.  The car has what seems to be a non stock coil  (with  
external ballast) and a bad vacuum retard unit.  Any idea  which coil set up  
is 
stock and where I can find a retard unit?   Other than that it is pretty  
much 
all original.  Any help would  be appreciated and there will be more  
questions 
to  follow!!!

Sam, I can't help on the vacuum unit, but a '72 GT6 would've had an  external 
ballast resistor as original, along with a 6v Lucas (originally) coil.
