I decided to buy a Pertronix ignition for my '49. After checking pretty much everywhere for the best price on a model #1585AP6 (correct for my 288 with 6V positive ground), I found a place that sold it for $94.
That's significantly cheaper than anywhere else I could come up with, so I checked with them to confirm the price. They say it's still current, so I've ordered one.
I never bought from the people before, so I'll report if there are any problems.
They are
Helmar Parts, in New York. They appear to be mainly a truck parts supplier.
