In perusing Rockauto for other parts,I decided to look for parts for my tractor. I looked at several models for the right application,and
found the parts listed for a '42 1/2 ton truck,120 CI. They sell Standard parts along with several other brands,cap.rotor,points and
condenser. Their prices are quite a bit lower than I've seen,and they ship quickly.
 
I'd skip the Standard brand points for $6.01 & get the $9.62 Wells points. IMHO, those are just as good as Bluestreak or Echlin.

Can't speak to the quality of the other parts.

Can't remember the # on the points,but it ends in an "x" and they have 3-4 brands. I had good service with the BWD points,which I understand is Standard. I got the BWD parts at O'reilly's,and they are still in after 3-4 years. I was simply offering an alternative source. I got a NOS Neihoff cap and rotor that I'm waiting to install. Good to hear you're still kicking,Bruce.
 
I've used RockAuto for 180* t-stats.

Put in 1977 Renault R12 1.6L L4. Beck Arnley t-stat, p/n 1430024. $4.52, much less expensive than the OEM 160* t-stat.

I've never looked for tractor parts at Rock Auto but bought front brakes and rotors for my Chevy and brakes/rotors for my wife's Camry.
I also bought 32 wheel studs when I converted my 11K trailer to accept Chevy rims and hub caps.
I live within a mile from 3 major parts stores and 2 independents. None of them could get close to Rock Auto's prices even when you included shipping. I got my parts twice in 1 1/2 days and once in 2 days.
I will use them again.
 

Been buying all my parts from Rock auto for years.
I think about three years back I saw one of these threads from Hobo who stated just look for the old 40s half ton and you'll find distributor part you need.
Look for their closeout prices. Got a few sets of BlueStreak points last year for about seven dollars and change each.
They sell all types of brand names. You just need to know what you're looking for.

About a month back I did a performance rebuild on the rear end axle on my 76 Pontiac Firebird. Bought all the Timkin bearings, rebuild kit and entire brake system from them except ring and pinion gears.
