Try NAPA. They go back to the 30's I think. I got points, condenser, cap etc for my 40 Plymouth pick up a while back. I think they may be the same as what you have? If you ever changed points before, you can do this one! Pretty straightforward and easy to get to. NAPA will have specs, point gap, and timing I think. Plugs are 35; same for years and years.

I have a repair manual that covers my 1954 Plymouth Savoy, but also shows tune up specifications for the older ones. Procedures for replacing the points, condenser, rotor button and distributor cap are the same; I purchased all of these at my local NAPA parts store, but most of the parts places have them.
I strongly recommend that you pull the distributor and replace the points, condenser and rotor button with it out of the car. If you don't, you will have a hard time tightening the small screw that holds the condenser to the points (it's very tight quarters) and it's easy to get the screw in cross-threaded and strip the hole (bad news). It's a piece of cake doing it with the distributor removed, but don't remove the distributor until you have marked its placement to include the distributor and rotor button position.
I can copy and email you any specs you need to do this or any other type job if you need it. My email is moonlyn@gmail.com
Or you can find a manual for the car at some out of town parts stores, or get one thru the Internet.
