Yes, It does have a blue band running around the cowl. No distributor, but it has choke plates.

Like this ??<br /><br /> http://au.photos.yahoo.com/andrewkafp <br /><br />Mine is a 50 Australian ser 8055895<br />If you have a Clymer manual. Go to the wiring diagrams at the back and look closely for a small chart which says someting like USA 533* Aust 806*<br />Canada 7* Belguim 9*<br />This gives you an idea what the relationship is between the different countries numbers<br />Mine is @ 1981-2 <br />Blue bands became brown bands in 1985.<br />1978 motors were called 500's <br />1981 had silver "Merury" on blue background<br />1982 had white "Mercury" on blue background
