    My book says that little gem goes 142 lbs (w E-start). The ’59 parts list says it uses a ‘standard’ mag, so I assume the ’58 does too. McC made a mid-year change to the mag in ’59, so ignition parts for the older motors may be uncommon ? It also shows the bail-o-matic, which wasn’t everybody’s cup of tea.
    I don’t know that the engine itself was substantially different from its contemporaries – it seems Sears sold several of them until McC spit the bit.

    I don’t like your chances of finding specifically a ’58, but I have actually been wrong once or thrice before.
